Well for many years i have found ports marvelous. I am changing my mind

Michel, it's cool you want to change stuff for the better, but now
you're just bashing, and as such not helping anybody. You really do
sound you've been hanging around the linux fanatics too much lately.

Also, your rehashing of your arguments of the previous few discussions
is getting a bit old. The least you could do is give your bikesheds a
fresh new coat of paint now and then.

Oh, and if I feel particularly snarky I'm going to ask for citations
of every single ``fact'' and every single number you invoke next time.
This is your fair warning: if you claim hard, objective, proven, or
whatever other flavour of fact, be prepared to prove it, give citations
and references, not merely say someone else proved it, possibly in a
different universe.
