4:03 PM - If you can't say anything original about MBSD...

While I am not active in the MBSD project, I do have a lot of interest in the project (otherwise I would not pay the Internet bill).

I did a quick Google search on MBSD.  Honestly I don't get why every little whiny poster needs to bitch and moan about it being a fork (half of the people don't seem to even know the proper definition of fork and assume distro == fork).  Then they go in the typical discussion of "we don't need more BSD's."

Ok, seriously other people have made these comments. 

If you don't like the project goals or think it's a waste of time and energy - I don't know - DON'T DOWNLOAD IT.  If a project is not popular, it will go away on its own.

Plus, why mention the project in the first place?  Not mentioning a project tends to kill one much faster than writing flame bait posts on the Internet.  Why?  9 out of 10 people may agree with you, but there will be a few who research the project themselves - and some of them may end up liking the project.
