NetBSD Imports XFree86 4.4.0

Posted by michael on from the eh dept.

jschauma writes "It appears that, unlike many other Open Source projects, NetBSD did not find any serious problems with the much-debated license change of XFree86 4.4.0: it was just imported into the tree."

    X is dying. So is NetBSD. Why is anyone surprised by this development?

      Hi. I like to spread my boyfriend's feces all over my body and feel it squish between my toes.
      Then I like bend over and stroke my cock while I take my boyfriend's cock up my ass.
      As a devout homosexual, I would like to know which BSD is right for me. I use a Mac, of course.

      Your gayest friend, Phil McCracken

    zu spat. Ich war noch essen, und mein CVS-Server
    ist ein Pentium-120, sodaB meiner gerade erst
    fertig ist - in die vendor branch.

    Jetzt darf ich noch ca. 630 Konflikte beseitigen
    und danach die Konfigurationdatei fur den MirBSD
    uname updaten und gucken, ob's lauft.
    Das dauert wohl noch etwas - GruB an die schnellen
    NetBSDler.

    As you all know, NetBSD is Canadian. We have better things to do than complain about licenses, like our southern neighbours! (hint to americans: you're at the South of Canada).

    Well, the hangers-on and the n00bs have to do something to justify their existence, since they're not coding.

    Except the ones that are.

    I hope the slf's and Linux distro's fork old versions of XFree86 into a non compat mess. BSD market share can only benefit.

      I hope *BSD continues to fork itself into a non compat mess. Linux marketshare can only benefit.
