Re: motd update

:I don't see why the uname output should be in motd. Every sysadmin out there
:knows how to use uname if they want to see what OS/version its running.

    The solution is clear... the code should be adjusted such that if 
    there is a DragonFly release string in the motd, the boot code adjusts
    it, and if there is no DragonFly release string in the motd, the boot
    code doesn't mess with it.

    The default motd has a DragonFly release string so insofar as new
    installs go, the motd will have the release.  But if the sysop doesn't
    like it he can just delete it from the motd without messing with rc.conf.

    Would someone like to have a go at 'fixing' /etc/rc.d/motd to 
    generate this behavior?
