From the post: "The Google Summer of Code project has also generated quite a bit of excitement. FreeBSD has been granted 18 funded mentorship spots, the fourth most of all of participating organizations. Projects being worked on range from UFS Journalling to porting the new BSDInstaller to redesigning the venerable www.FreeBSD.org website."

  1. *nix. What the hell does splat mean? by elgee · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I was thinking of putting some flavor of *nix on a spare machine at home. But the more I read /., the more I am leaning towards just letting the spare machine be a piece of non-functional furniture.

    It is like going into some mythical hamburger joint intendding to get a burger and being confronted with a menu of 8000 burgers. And many of those burgers have multiple versions. "Chunky Munkey Burger V5.3"

    I gotta get more of a real life. Call me offtopic or whatever.
