Hi, all - I was just filling out yet another silly bingo card for a trade mag, and I realised that there's an opportunity to raise the world's consciousness of FreeBSD. Instead of checking the UNIX (SVR4, AIX, etc) box, proudly check OTHER and write in FreeBSD. It's just a small step, but I think we should all take it. Besides, thanks to the stupid trademark issue others have been discussing, it's technically true. A second plug is coming up. I have been asked to be a panelist with a 20-minute presentation at Networld+Interop in May in a session titled "Extranet War Stories", and I intend to use it as a forum for showing that our company has been successful in building an xxxxxnet presence built solely on freeware like FreeBSD, Apache, GNU and Perl, and that this is a viable path for corporate development of commerce websites. Feel free to join in, introduce yourself, and throw peanuts :) -- oooOOO O O O o * * * * * * o ___ _________ _________ ________ _________ _________ ___==_ V_=_=_DW ===--- Don Wilde [don@PartsNow.com] [http://www.PartsNow.com ] /oo0000oo-oo--oo-ooo---ooo-ooo---ooo-ooo--ooo-ooo---ooo-ooo---ooo-oo--oo
