I just wish you'd bothered to make all this public sooner. Here I am, having spent the last couple of months growing a beard to enhance my hackerhood, and now, just when it's starting to look good, you want me to shave it off! That's the whole problem with Linux. It's about time you stopped using these undocumented hygiene interfaces and published some solid standards! (And don't give me that old excuse about having your pictures right in front of us -- "A real hacker wouldn't need documentation, he'd just read my face.")
