Don't agree.  Those that make it a pastime to flame in
gnu.misc.discuss usually have stopped actively developing FreeBSD (if
they did so before).  And they don't really constitute a significant
ratio of FreeBSD developers.

Most serious developers don't have the time to indulge in pointless
flamewars and trolling, as flaming the GPL on gnu.misc.discuss
certainly is.
