NetBSD hurts its image itself because there's nobody that can prove that
the reproaches are *not* true.
this led to an ongoing discussion and (semi-)insulting posts from both
parties, the party that thinks Mr. Hannum is right, and that party that
thinks the opposite. either way, the latter one screams louder but
produces much more hot air -- without delivering the proof that Mr.
Hannums reproaches are not true. (maybe it cannot be proved because they
are true?)
