FreeBSD end-of-year fund raising drive (update)
,----[ Quote ]
| FreeBSD is free; it can be downloaded, used and
| adapted without paying any fees, unlike other
| major operating systems. This is why the
| FreeBSD Foundation needs donations to be able
| to fund new projects and conferences.

Quick Overview of Bsd Systems With Main Focus on Openbsd
,----[ Quote ]
| Today, when too many companies bring out
| various distros, it is hard to tell which of
| them best suits our needs and you may become
| mixed-up in such a huge list. If companies
| invest money to a software solution, they
| may become disappointed if its licensing
| policy changes. OpenBSD has one sturdy
| feature above everything â the system and
| packages are perfectly audited for security
| holes.

Install a BSD-variant with the help of PC-BSD
,----[ Quote ]
| Iâm very glad to see that someone has
| created a BSD variant that is easy enough
| for the masses to install. PC-BSD allows
| anyone to give one of the most solid,
| reliable, and secure operating system
| available a try.

Why the BSDs get no love
,----[ Quote ]
| So to the BSD community I beg you, make
| modern your image. Stop playing in your
| basement laboratory and show the rest of the
| world how powerful you really are. Just make
| sure when the masses of the world see you
| they donât think, âOh, how outdated is that?â
| Gain the love you deserve, BSD.

Six-monthly releases: OpenBSD shows the way
,----[ Quote ]
| De Raadt says that by the time one release
| takes place, the developers are already six
| weeks into the next development cycle. "The
| release is a branch off the main development
| tree. In many other projects, it is a live
| branch, as in a separate team cuts it off
| and then keeps making minor tweaks to it to
| make sure it is a good release (why? that is
| because the mainline is crap).
|
| "In OpenBSD, the release branch is a dead
| branch. The day it split from the trunk it
| was determined to be good enough for making
| a real release. Without any changes. That is
| because the trunk is good stuff."
