OpenBSD 4.7 Preorders Are Up

Posted by timothy on from the so-you're-in-favor-then? dept.

badger.foo writes "The OpenBSD 4.7 pre-orders are up. That means the release is done, sent off to CD production, and snapshots will turn -current again. Order now and you more likely than not will have your CD set, T-shirt or other cool stuff before the official release date. You get the chance to support the most important free software project on the planet, and get your hands on some cool playables and wearables early. The release page is still being filled in, but the changelog has detailed information about the goodies in this release."

      The basic sleazeware produced in a drunken fury by a bunch of UCBerkeley grad students was still the core of BIND. --PV

    Free means no restrictions, ironic the FSF's GPL forces restrictions, isn't it? What's your definition of free?
