The PC-BSD folks have it installed by default, which is why they hold the higest spot for the US, and are fast approaching FreeBSD overall ... Someone was looking at adding install/activate bsdstats to sysinstall for new installations, but don't think it went anywhere past the talking stage ... - ---- Marc G.

Please, please make the labels etc. much brighter, they are way too dark. After printing 11.000 CDs and DVDs this year for fairs and events I can definitely tell you they are much to dark, hatever CD-ROM you may use (Verbatim is the brand I use), even with high glossy surfaces the albedo is not high enough. And please use bigger fonts, imho they are too small. The original blue used for the FreeBSD logo is too dark, you can see that on diplays, posters etc. as well. Here's another example for a brighter blue: https://bilder.bsdgroup.de/galleries/FroSCon2007/450.html (work done by Aron Schlesinger and Dirk Arlt, CC'ed) Best regards, Daniel > Thank you very much for your kind reply! > > I am currently "finetuning" these versions for the upcoming FreeBSD 7.0 > release, so I would be happy about any feedback (Any typos?
