FreeBSD Release Engineer Emeritus Glen Barber has had a rough few years.

He managed the last several major FreeBSD releases. If you've run FreeBSD any time in the last few years, it's because of him.

Now he's out of work and his car is busted. Can't get one without the other. Throw him a couple bucks towards getting some wheels?

@mwl That email was a tough read. I am very familiar with alcoholism, my mother was a chronic alcoholic for the first half of my life. She came out the other side. It can be done. It is not easy.

@sullybiker My parents did not come through it. If someone's fallen into that pit and is doing the work to climb out, I'll happily offer a hand up.

@mwl Sorry to hear that Michael. I had the feeling it would go that way many times.
