Johannes did not start this threat. A committer, Niclas Zeising, did. Johannes has stepped up and done a ton of work (along with many others, some committers and some not) to get modern intel and amd GPU's working under freebsd. this was something that was a gaping hole in freebsd when this work started a bit over a year ago, and i'm not sure why more committers weren't embarrassed by this gap nor motivated to chip in. regardless - not sure why you'd take his comment out of context :/ the full quote was: "I'm not a committer but as I understand there's not pre-commit integration tests.. If one had that, plus that it would test build kmod ports against the pre-commit state of head as well, then maybe this would work." not really sure what's controversial about that statement which would prompt your reply - but i guess people dedicating their spare time to help create useful things for others shouldn't go unpunished. well i guess i broke my promise to ignore this bikeshed :( -p -- Pete Wright pete_at_nomadlogic.org _at_nomadlogicLAReceived on Thu May 31 2018 - 21:00:40 UTC
