(jordan.dev.cdrom.com) The machine was previously responsible for creating ISO images of FreeBSD distributions, which is why you see people writing to this very list asking about the location of downloadable ISO images time an= d again. At some point in the last year or so the machine realized itself - became self-aware - owing to a chemical reaction when the dander and accumulated fuzz of about a dozen cats held in residence gathered to bake in JORDAN-1's power supply fan. Today the JORDAN-1 continues to oversee FreeBSD development in capacities varying from president to cheerleader to code geek, ensuring the continued forward progress of the OS. This allows him the secure knowledge that he wi= ll continue to be needed for additional CD-ROM pressings, thus ensuring his continued existence. -----Original Message----- From: Len Huppe [mailto:huppe@execpc.com] Sent: Thursday, July 29, 1999 9:27 PM To: Brian McGroarty; Alexander Hav=E4ng Cc: freebsd-chat Subject: Re: Jordan exists I realise that this will sound incredibly stupid to you guys, but what in tarnations are you talking about?
