   This is not a true statement.  Nothing was stopping you, at any time,
   from submitting changes to NetBSD.  You simply chose not to.

In another posting you mentions that you cannot keep up with the
backlog of problem reports on your mailing lists now.

In that case, I don't see how you would have been able to keep up with
the volume of changes I am making now.

Or the volume of fixes and improvements the other OpenBSD developers
are making.

I suppose the NetBSD camp wanted me to file 50 PR's a day that would
never get resolved.
