Its been awhile since I've seen you post around here Moulinneuf, I'm sure everyone has missed thoughtful and insightful dialog like
"Your a **BSD** , you have no credibility at all"
"2) **You** are fast at burning someone. Other's like me just reply in kind , to your intelligence lacking insulting and unrealistic and fabricated reality that is completely unrealistic."
"3) Your a liar , traitor , coward and incompetent. "
"I apparently , also need to actually point to you and take you by your childish hands , that Opening and freeing the source code will enable BSD and other OS to be run properly and correctly on this device and the hardware it's made of."
In a single post, you managed to break rules 1-4 and rule 6 of the OSNews forum rules (http://www4.osnews.com/docs/rules). I have to admit, I do love reading your posts though, especially the wild, barely comprehensible meltdowns about BSD.

It wasn't even that, it was just a matter of time. But some people are rather fast at burning someone then actually thinking.
