In the current case, it's not sharing, it's pure ego-stroking. There are documented ways to share stuff with the rest of the openbsd crowds. Sending patches to the FAQ, or various ports is much better than duplicating the work. Your notes are nothing but a vanity website. At least you talk about it here, so we can point out what you do wrong. But that's actually negative criticism: I have NO interest in seeing duplicate information concerning OpenBSD. I have SOME interest in keeping incorrect information about OpenBSD out of public view. I already spend enough time fixing duplicate info in manpages when it goes out of synch with current practices. I'm not too fond of hunting down more incorrect stuff all over the internet. > If everyone followed your advice there would be no internet. Well, you could start by fixing your email configuration, every single answer I sent to your emails has made it to the list, but bounced on your address...
