    I have no problem with bringing up the discussion of process
    checkpointing on FreeBSD, what I _DO_ have a problem with is all this
    cruft about DF on the list all the time. We keep getting the, "DragonFly
    does it this way" or "DragonFly has this and we don't" on the
    freebsd-hackers mailing list, and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one
    annoyed about it.

    Again, I have no problem with bringing up the process checkpointing, I
    have a problem with people saying "DragonFly has this" _all_ the time;
    if I wanted to hear about DF's development path I would be subscribed to
    their mailing lists.
