  1. Why? by RinkSpringer · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Say, I wonder... why does Linux Kernel Version 1.2.3.4.5.6 patchlevel 7 make it to the front page and this does not? In my opinion, this news is of a bit more influence (at least to the BSD world) than yet another patchlevel...

  2. *bsd is dying... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 4, Funny

    Ahhh so linux users shout *bsd is dying. Yet according to netcraft 44 of the top 50 longest living machines are running some form of BSD. What do I have to worry about?

    BSD machines may be dying but they take so damn long to do so who knows who or what will be around for the funeral. I sure hope linux can attend.

    There was a contest for a new logo, and after over 100 people participated they decided that "none of them were what we were looking for".

    That was the FreeBSD Foundation, which I'm fairly certain is seperate from the FreeBSD core team.
