Not everyone reads the questions list. Heck, not even all the
developers do, due to the low signal/noise ratio here.

Uh-oh! A mindset like this would explain a lot of things. :-(

Fortunately, there *are* developers here who do take users'
questions seriously.

You missed the point.

Signal = questions from users about FreeBSD technical support.

Noise = lots of whining about the logo.

On the plus side, if you guys keep it up I'll be able to dramatically
improve my view of the S/N ratio by adding those with nothing better
to contribute than their indignation to my killfile (some are there
already) so I *can* focus on the user questions.
