   Instead, we have very little to show for the last 6 months.  Theo
   and I worked on various improvements and new framebuffer drivers,
   I'm willing to bet that none of them are in -current code.

One can only stand on ones hands for so long... and it's starting to
show for people who also worked hard on the Sparc code.

   I like working with Theo, he gets things done.  He works so fast
   that I have a hard time keeping up with him :-)

No joke, when I go through the old list postings and watch the changes
from day to day in the tree's during that time period, I begin to
think that Theo is 5 people instead of one ;)

   The way I see it, if core doesn't care enough to do whatever it
   takes to get Theo's contributions, then I don't care enough to use,
   promote, or contribute to NetBSD ever again.

Are you listening 'Core'?  Look another happy fan.....

   Maybe I should just save my voice, it didn't help last time, doubt
   it'll make any difference this time.

No the problem, is that it gets dropped on the floor when peoples
vocal chords get tired of trying to get Core to listen to and properly
address the problem... keep things up... make a stink, in short...

		"Save Theo and the Sparc port!"

Tis' my new campaign slogan ;)

   It'll probably stay dead unless someone finds a clone of Theo
   that's got the same knowledge, time, and happens to be Politically
   Correct enough for the job... :-)

That's it, we need another split!  PC-Netbsd and nonPC-Netbsd, so that
politically correct and non-politically correct people don't have to
deal with each other.... yeah, it fixed things the last time, let's
split again... sigh ;(

   Frustrated would-be-again NetBSD contributor,

See Core, like I said, another happy fan....

Later,
