=) or something abstract?

You are free to use any other operating system of your choice, if you are not happy with FreeBSD.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

I'm not going anywhere, not even hope for it =) I'm trying to make FreeBSD a better, more logical. Maybe that's not very successful, but judging by the number of responses, it hurt many, and made to think even more people.

I think you misunderstand. Some of us old-timers have been having this discussion repeatedly for well over ten years. It always ends up the same way - a re-org might make the source tree marginally prettier but the consequences for long-term maintenance and supporting downstream contributors outweigh any possible benefit. Having the same conversation every two years with the same outcome gets annoying.

And the fact that this issue was raised with enviable regularity - not make you think that it really needs to be done?

Read what I wrote. Consequences outweigh benefits so no. On the other hand, if you are just trolling, please try somewhere else.
