Greetings all, MacWorld's August edition has an article on the new Mac OS X server software. On page 33 we get a quick mention: "The good news is that Apple said its goal was to syncronise Darwin with FreeBSD 3.x (www.freebsd.org), arguably the most popular version of free BSD Unix available. That move would undoubtedly assure Apple a larger community of programmers who could contribute to Darwin." . . "The true measure of success of Apple's open-source strategy, however, will be whether Apple can succeed in making developers care about Darwin the way they care about Linux and FreeBSD today..." -- The Millennium Mac, by Stephan Somogyi - p 29 to 36 It's certainly the last place I expected to find a mention of FreeBSD, but I'm not complaining. ;-) Enjoy, Joel... --- Joel Sutton | Busy Bee Consulting Phone: (0409) 426-563 | Melbourne, Australia Email: jsutton@bbcon.com.au | http://www.bbcon.com.au/ VicFUG Webmaster/Acting President | http://www.vicfug.au.freebsd.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
