Jordan Hubbard moves to new OpenDarwin.org

Posted by pudge on from the tis-the-work-of-satan-i-tell-ye dept.

bootc writes "Last week we heard the news that Jordan Hubbard was leaving the FreeBSD Core Team. I received an email about the new OpenDarwin.org web site and had a look around, just to find that our friend Jordan was member of the OpenDarwin Core Team!" Apple has consolidated its Open Source web site, including Darwin, under its developer site, while the Internet Software Consortium is hosting the independent OpenDarwin.org, which will develop OpenDarwin with the developer community and collaborate with Apple to merge OpenDarwin technologies into Darwin and Mac OS X.

    I'd say it's not that rare to have both. I will say that UNIX is a hell of a lot easier to master though. My sig other didn't come with man pages.

    Okay...hmmm...something funny to go for the coveted +5 score. How about:

    I've decided to fork a *BSD tree into my own offering. I'm going to call it "The Darwin Awards". Why? Because, "BSD is dying". Ba-dump-ba!

    When I read "sig other" I didn't quite understand and went looking at your sig and everyone else's in the thread before I realized it was an abbreviation.

    Ever notice what happens when you type
    man woman
    at a Unix prompt?

    man: woman not found
    Which explains so much....
