NetBSD 4.0 Has Been Released

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Wednesday December 19, 2007 @05:59AM from the so-long-and-thanks-for-all-the-stacks dept.

ci4 writes to tell us that NetBSD 4.0 has been released and has been dedicated to the memory of Jun-Ichiro "itojun" Hagino. "Itojun was a member of the KAME project, which provided IPv6 and IPsec support; he was also a member of the NetBSD core team (the technical management for the project), and one of the Security Officers. Due to Itojun's efforts, NetBSD was the first open source operating system with a production ready IPv6 networking stack, which was included in the base system before many people knew what IPv6 was. We are grateful to have known and worked with Itojun, and we know that he will be missed. This release is therefore dedicated, with thanks, to his memory."

Yes, but do you feel target, best buy, circuit city, or any of the other corporate fascist masters we can choose are better in any material way? We must choose to live either on the grid or off.

If you're on the grid, people who you don't like are getting your money. Think BP/Shell/Texaco or your local monopolistic power company are filled with joyful liberals? Think the local water/sewage/waste disposal companies are your best friend?

Life is full of choices. Sometimes its what you can get, not who you're giving it to that is the deciding factor.
