I think you are being slightly absurd. If you want DragonFly to go into
businesses/corporations you have to be prepared they *have* demands ,
and they are much bigger than mine "is it gonna be branched today as
planned", which i hope you do unless you want DragonFly to be a needle
in a heap of sand forever. If you think that your attitude by calling me
a nagging kid will attract people to this operating system, least of all
businesses, then you are *dead* wrong. How would you feel If I called
you a "a slow and lazy dev". If you want to be abusive you should join
the Gaim club or OpenBSD, because they have plenty.
The devs do a lot of work and the only thing they get throw in their
faces are "when are the branch gonna be made?". I'm not a dev but
these are people that dedicate their free time to develop a nice
operating system and I have a hard time seeing how anybody could make
demands against them.
Lay it off and the branch will be made when they feel it's time for it.
