Rafal Jaworowski is FreeBSD’s Newest Committer
December 27th, 2007 Posted in FreeBSD | 14 Comments »They like me. They really really like me.
In a truly bizarre coincidence (I’m sure!), no less than 24 of you emailed me last night (mostly from university accounts, which makes me suspect substances were involved) with complaints that during the entire span of 2007 there has not been a single story on this blog about FreeBSD.
This will not stand.
I have no idea who Rafal Jaworowski is. I have no idea what a “Committer” is. But the former is now the newest of the latter, and congratulations are in order. Unless being a Committer is a bad thing, in which case shame on you Rafal Jaworowski, you really let us down. Wear your new title with pride/shame!
I also only have the vaguest of ideas what a FreeBSD is (other than from one of my emailers who passionately insists it is not fucking Linux!), but it does have a cutesy-wutsey little Fogliosh mascot who looks like he could probably kill the cutesy-wutsey penguin with his adorable widdle pitchfork, but would probably just hug him instead. So, you know, there’s that.
Completely unrelated to the topic at hand: it only now occured to me that in just under a week it will be 2008, and I will no longer be able to date my checks with a cool European 7 in the year field. You know, that’s where you make a normal American 7 and then put a little horizontal slash through the middle. Now I’m going to have to find other ways to be passively-aggressively pretentious. Perhaps my newfound FreeBSD friends might have some suggestions…
