DragonFlyBSD Team Interviewed

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the getting-to-know dept.

lowks writes "A nice little interview from the ONLamp BSD advocacy page where we get to peer a little into the goings ons and updates as well as plans for DragonFlyBSD. Highlights include the rationale behind DragonFlyBSD and peeks into the current engine as well as goodies planned to be implemented in the future versions. DragonFlyBSD is another flavour of BSD which forked from the FreeBSD 4.x branch not too long ago. It's headed by Matt Dillon, who forged out on his own and started DragonFlyBSD due to technical differences with the FreeBSD team ."

    Did you use BSD back when it was alive or did you only get into it after it died because of your necrophilia?

    A tourist bus skidded off a mountain road and fell into a gorge in western India, killing 22 people and injuring 30 others, Press Trust of India news agency said Sunday. The accident occurred just before midnight Saturday on a mountain road near Mahabaleshwar, a hill resort 95 miles southeast of Bombay, said PTI quoting police.

    The driver of the bus was negotiating a bend in the road when he lost control of the vehicle which skidded and crashed into a gorge, nearly 200 feet below. Residents of nearby villages and authorities found 22 bodies. BSD was among the dead. Its corpse has gone unclaimed, leading to speculation that BSD was indeed an orphan. Calls to former spouse Wind River went unreturned.

    Chocolate Icecream is DEAD!
    Everyone knows that Vanilla icecream is better than chocolate icecream.
    You can ask anyone who works in an icecream shop, everyone wants vanilla!
    If you eat chocolate icecream, then you are a necropheliac because chocolate icecream is dead!
    Everyone knows that vanilla icecream is superior. Chocolate icecream eaters are morons.
    Even the people who make chocolate icecream know that their days are numbered. They don't sell as much icecream as the vanilla icecream makers.

      Oh you'd better hope the black panthers don't get ahold of you, white boy. They'd lay the proverbial smack on your vanilla ass.
