Lyrics for OpenBSD 3.8 Song Out

Posted by Hemos on from the the-joy-and-amusement dept.

PrayingWolf writes "The lyrics for the OpenBSD 3.8 song "Hackers of the Lost RAID" have been released.
As always, remember to read the lefthand column for what the song is related to - this time it's about (you guessed it) RAID drivers..."

    Theo announced the lyrics on Sep 27th. It took all that time to make it here? Unless this is a dupe

      I submitted it on the 29th, with more info about Adaptec's RAID b.s. and the wireless cards.

      Slashdot takes a long time to cover things -- e.g. days or weeks. Other news sources ARE more up to date. Yet people still seem to come here, if only to complain about Zonk's dupes, rejected news stories that pop up later, and so on.

      I call the continuing popularity of Slashdot, in spite of its mediocrity, the "Slashdot Paradox".

    Hopefully it will get accepted as it is more interesting than 3.8 song lyrics.

    OpenBSD 3.8 will be released on November 1st which will offer a number of new features. Among the new features are several changes to the network stack that help reduce the imapact of DoS attacks. SecurityFocus conducted an interview with three of the project's developers in which they share more details about the upcoming release and this new significant change. Check it out and then please support a fine open source project!

      The article got rejected. I suppose a story about OpenBSD 3.8 song lyrics is more appealing to /. editors =P

    It's a long time since there was anything in bsd.slashdot.org. Strange that they would not accept any reasonable article.
