Hello,

I don't know you have heard of us, but Atomz is one of the leading 
providers of hosted web-native search and content management applications 
delivered over the Internet.  Since our founding in 1998, our services have 
been powered by FreeBSD and we now have over 55,000 web sites using Atomz 
hosted services.  Companies that use Atomz hosted services include 
Macromedia, Palm, Handspring, Maxtor, CBS News, Sony Playstation, Princess 
Cruises, Kohler, U.S. Customs Department, Johnson & Johnson Lifescan, Red 
Herring Magazine, and the list goes on and on.

I wanted to offer the use of the Atomz search service for the FreeBSD.org 
web site for free.  I believe that this could improve the overall quality 
of the FreeBSD.org web site and make it easier for people to find 
information out about our favorite operating system -- FreeBSD.  I put 
together a quick example of Atomz Search for the FreeBSD.org web site at 
the following URL:

http://mike.demo.atomz.com/freebsd/

This example is searching about 2600 documents on the FreeBSD.org web 
site.  With a little more work we could search the entire email archives in 
the same manner and the foreign language sections of the site.

Because of the value at Atomz we have found in FreeBSD, I would make our 
services available to the FreeBSD.org web site for free.  We normally sell 
our search service for $15,000 to $100,000 depending on the customer 
requirements so I hope that you can see that this is a very powerful 
service.  I would also offer technical assistance from our company to 
assist with making sure FreeBSD.org is getting a top quality implementation 
of our web service.  I would also be willing to offer our content 
management system, Atomz Publish, as well if you think that would be useful 
to the FreeBSD organization.

In any case, I hope that this offer seems attractive.  If you have 
questions or would like to discuss this further, please contact me at 
mike@atomz.com or by phone at 650-244-5602.

Thank you for helping to support the creation of a wonderful operating system.

Mike Thompson
