    Fame and glory? That's lame. They should give away free copies of their OS. Now THAT would be a prize!

  2. What a deal! by m_evanchik · · Score: 3, Funny

    Gee, "All entries become the property of the FreeBSD Foundation." That sure sounds like a sweet open-source kind of deal. You send them a picture, for their product, and they get to own it whether they use it or not!

    Excessive legalisms are a bane of existence, but so are stupid ones. I don't know the enforceability of this joke of a contest rule, since generally a contract is only valid if both parties get something of value in the deal.

    Would programmers put up with such a noxious clause regarding their software submissions to FreeBSD?
