The Future of Unix Standards: Unix 10?

,----[ Quote ]
| For the last 40 years, Unix operating systems 
| have helped to power mission-critical IT 
| operations around the globe. Now, as Unix enters 
| middle age, its backers are busily developing the 
| new specifications that they hope will carry the 
| OS forward into the next age of computing.

Why security gets no love

,----[ Quote ] 
| There are other reasons to doubt the importance 
| of a graphical installer as the big reason BSD 
| Unix systems do not get the âloveâ that is heaped 
| on Linux. The answer to why Linux gets more hype 
| and attention is much more complex than that, and 
| includes such concerns as marketing power â in 
| large part because its community is full of 
| people who will talk about how great it is 
| without even understanding half of what they are 
| saying. That is true of anything popular, and 
| says nothing bad about Linux itself, of course.

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.
