lBSD_de - a german localization FreeBSD Project

Posted by Hemos on from the bringing-it-home dept.

Axel Gruner writes "A german BSD-Community, namely BSDForen.de, has officially anounced their new project "lBSD_de". "lBSD_de" is a modification of the FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE Operating System to better fit the needs of German speaking users.
Another goal of the project is developing new features. Of course, whatever new there is will be passed to the FreeBSD-Developers to either implement it or drop it. That way, avoiding two FreeBSDs each with different features is guaranteed.
For further information, visit the project's homepage at http://www.lbsdde.de."

    They'd create such for OpenBSD. Then, the Germans could just say "Heil Theo" instead of "Hail Theo". That's better for them.

  2. a good fit by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Flamebait
    after all, they're both irrelevant. What next, a French port of minix?


    The big boys don't give a shit. Now fuck off!
