that's a very good point. i think that's a crucial reason why freebsd has already lost this 'market'
imo, freebsd's developers (or maybe it's core@) has, and i hate to use the cliche, but, 'sold out'
otoh, openbsd developers develop because they want to. they want quality software that's *free*. freebsd developers seem to have gone the "we want something that works" route, and that's too bad
while your developers have been busy hiring themselves out in the name of furthering freebsd's development, openbsd has already cornered wireless development
hardware raid management? scott long and freebsd's answer is to import unfree, binary tools to do it. openbsd's answer is the free and open bioctl(8)
wireless support? phk@ runs off saying what openbsd does is illegal yada yada yada, and yet, freebsd encourages people to use project evil and ndiswrapper. instead, openbsd courts hardware manufacturers, gets the docs, and creates free drivers
most of the openntpd criticisms are unfounded and are from an ntp.org fanboy
i don't know what the grandparent is referring to in that openntpd opens connections to the servers too frequently... the time between syncs is determined by the drift, which, with -s at boot is pointless
do you have any links for your project? i'm particularly interested in the sirius part (i have xm now thru my deck and an xmpcr) but am switching to sirius here soon
my guess is that junxion box is really a soekris or wrap board with a custom case and a customized installation of bsd or linux. those systems are ~$200

i take it you think people should be rewarded for asking stupid questions, doing no research, and not following guidelines?
for those wishing to learn about the "Internets"
not just the ocean man
curfew extended and the keys to the car,
that's the easy part. getting laid^H^H^H^Haccepted by PHBs as being suitable 'enterprise grade' computing is the hard part
this support showed up in openbsd almost 2 years ago
microsoft's support was partial. intel's implementation is partial
openbsd's support is full. amd's implementation is full (and freely documented)
And perhaps glibc malloc will borrow a few tricks from this new openbsd malloc too.
...
maybe glibc developers should start small and put strl*() and friends in first
that is such a totally great quote. that's hot
Dell has had 64-bit servers for a long while
earthlink's mail server complex has come up on freebsd-isp a few times
this guy used to work at both sendmail and earthlink and he has links to some good resources

sorry freebsd, you've lost

right
let's give someone an award for FOSS who accepts and signs NDAs to get the docs to write drivers for hardware
just use ours. it's not like we are anymore
dunno if this is a different story, but it sounds awfully familiar to a novell server at UNC
How would you like it if someone posted a sign on your street giving the code to your alarm system or garage door opener?
i would feel "oh shit. i better fix that now"
say football is a form of terrorism that has only gotten worse since 9/11
oh, and "for the children" or something along those lines
boxbackup has clients for various platforms. free too
to clarify, they aren't running fiber into the home. they are using the existing CATV infrastructure to do this
i'm not sure what the comment about dark fiber has to do with this unless the cable companies use fiber for distribution (or would in the future)?
fpse 2000 are eol'd as of 6/30/05, yes, but fpse 2002 aren't eol'd until 6/30/06
i will try pointing the web cam at it later today

he's been fixing the problem. where have you been?
I have that t-shirt
Really, I do
