Greetings,

   Since Linux's networking performance is now superior to FreeBSD's, isn't
it about time for the FreeBSD developers to admit that Linux is better and
give up?  I constantly hear BSD people say that they have a better TCP/IP
stack than Linux, but we all know in actuality this is no longer true.
   Since most other parts of Linux are now superior to BSD as well, and
are constantly improving, you BSD people really need to move into the future.
And the future is Linux.

I hope you all seriously think about this.
