Usually hacker lists are for technical details. Although sometimes general issues like security will get floated. I don't know if I (1) Feel Competent Enough (2)Have the Time to throw together a *NIX reading list. Generally one can glean a lot of information by just putting oneself on several mailing lists. Some devoted to BSD, some to Linux and just lurking around. One can get a lot of useful information that way. If one really wanted to have fun, and I have thought of this. A "triple boot system" would be the real way to find out the differences and compare the *BSD, Linux and the Windows Universes. Oh well that is my 5 cents worth (inflation you know) and now I will go back to lurking. Have Fun, Sends Steve P.S. Does anyone ever do much on advocacy mailing lists? So far hackers is the best list for technical stuff about *BSD I know of. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
