Based on my experiences with them so far, it seems like a pretty good team, give or take. I think they'll be able to focus most on what the project needs. The important part is they know how to have fun with it. ;)

Say, I wonder... why does Linux Kernel Version 1.2.3.4.5.6 patchlevel 7 make it to the front page and this does not? In my opinion, this news is of a bit more influence (at least to the BSD world) than yet another patchlevel...

  Why would Theo want to serve on the FreeBSD core team? He writes OpenBSD!

  Who the hell gave "+1 Interesting" to the parent? How is it interesting that two people who have nothing to do with FreeBSD development, and did not run for FreeBSD Core, were not elected to FreeBSD Core?

    Actually, I found it "+1 Funny" but I didn't have any moderator points.
    
    Seriously, though, it looks like a good group, one that will be a little more activist than the last one, more likely to reign in some of the petty weenie-waving that has happened of late but not get overbearing about it.

Ahhh so linux users shout *bsd is dying. Yet according to netcraft 44 of the top 50 longest living machines are running some form of BSD. What do I have to worry about?

BSD machines may be dying but they take so damn long to do so who knows who or what will be around for the funeral. I sure hope linux can attend.

  There was a contest for a new logo, and after over 100 people participated they decided that "none of them were what we were looking for".
  
  That was the FreeBSD Foundation, which I'm fairly certain is seperate from the FreeBSD core team.
