Dear Sir/Madam,
The next time you update this page you may wish to consider correcting
some repetition in the introduction: "FreeBSD is a is a ..."
Also, it may be worthwhile considering moving some of the historical
information to an attached page -- stuff dating back to 1995 and 1994
hardly seems worthy of space on the "newsflash" page.
Regards,
Richard

Agreed; this was a change that I had needed to make for a while now. I
removed everything pre-dating November, 1996.
Thanks for your comments!

This seems quite silly and certainly doesn't help engender
cooperation between BSD projects (of which I'd love to see more).
Would it be possible to stop this practice? It doesn't really
buy you any security (would someone *really* try to crack into a
machine from an ip space for which he/she is registered in the NIC?)
These kinds of things just create bad blood and dont't lead
to anything other than stupid flame wars. Please consider
removing the filter rules in question.
Thank you,
todd

Hi!
I was setting up a webpage at www.openbsd.org with several links to your
web-structure, http://www.openbsd.org/ports.html, explaining how to go on
about using your fine ports collection in OpenBSD. Fairly quick I got to
know that you filter (at least) web-traffic from openbsd.org. Clearly,
this is something you have your freedom to do, but I question it highly.
I thought we were cooperating, but this is a symbolic measure just
stirring up ill will. There is no gain in keeping such a filter up (or
reject route or whatever you use) and especially, no security gain. It
would be the end for a serious security-focused OS like OpenBSD to host
cracker attacks against any other organization. So such an argument falls
due to internal incosistencies in my eyes.
If you intend to keep the filtering, please tell us why you feel it
necessary, and what can be done about it. Purely from an idealist's point
of view (and I am an idealist in many ways) this isn't something a BSD
derived system should tell the Internet community is a way to solve a
conflict (if there is one, is there?). I don't see a reason why FreeBSD
should be scared of OpenBSD, clearly Linux is a bigger threat for you ;-)
With hopes of a change soon,
Niklas

Please, we've been all over this already many times in recent memory,
and it's a common misunderstanding that the filter rules are there to
buy security - they're not. They're there to force the use of
locations other than openbsd.org for any contemplated attack on
freebsd.org machines in the future, the theory being that if a relay
needs to be used then it expands the potential scope of the conflict
beyond what most [un]reasonable people would be willing to contemplate
and hopefully serves as a functional deterrant.

I take it you have evidence for this as it is a rather serious argument.
If you have so then I think you should let us know of the facts as it is
the only way we can resolve a very serious problem at our end. I'd
certainly tell you if I knew someone used your machines as a host for
attacks. I'd do that even if I had differences with you (which I don't),
because that's part of the survival instinct of our net. We're all in
this together, you know.

Hi webmaster@freebsd.org,
is http://freebsd.org/
a long term usable address ?
or just something I tried that happened to work yesterday ?
I'd like to quote a shorter address to people, both for the official pages,
& my personal http://freebsd.org/~jhs/ area,
but I don't want to if it's likely to change or annoy someone ?
I notice on TV, CNN news are also going shorter with http://ccn.com etc ...
I guess the obvious problem point might be if / when you move the http: server
on a different machine than the one running gettys,
but I guess that's not about to happen anytime soon,
& even then certainly under cern server I know its possible to do
href forwarding to another host (Yup I know you run apache on freeefall
but I havent got round to config'ing my apache to learn it yet,
I just remember its possible with cern)
Comments ? Thanks :-)
Julian

It's bad, please don't do it. If we decide to move the web pages to a
different host but leave services like `finger @freebsd.org' to work
as expected, we will expect people to be following the www.freebsd.org
pointer and your stuff will break.
And yes, this could happen pretty much anytime. :-)

Hello,
At the bottom of the page:
http://www.freebsd.org/support.html
is the following text:
Related Operating System Projects
- NetBSD is a very close relative of FreeBSD.
- OpenBSD is derived from NetBSD and supported by a group of
former NetBSD developers.
- Linux is another free Unix-like system.
- Lites is a 4.4 BSD Lite based server and emulation library
that provides free unix unctionality to a Mach based system.
- The GNU HURD project is another effort to develop a free
Unix-like operating system.
I must object to the first two bullets, but can suggest alternatives
that contain much more accurate information:
- NetBSD is another free 4.4BSD-Lite based operating
system which runs on several different architectures,
including the Alpha, SPARC, m68k, ARM, and others.
I don't have a suggestion for the second bullet. However, I object
to any reference to NetBSD in an OpenBSD bullet. They are two
completely separate projects, which are in no way related. Relating
the two only leads to confusion.
Thanks very much for your attention in this matter.

Well, I do beg to differ slightly - it is strongly *based* on NetBSD,
and you see references to NetBSD this or that all over the place. The
projects may not be related, but it's still valuable information for
the user to be told that it's not something truly unique and
different, it started as a NetBSD offshoot and is still a very very
similar product in many respects, no?

Those are better, but I'd still prefer to not mention NetBSD
in the OpenBSD bullet. See below...

There is too much confusion surrounding the NetBSD/OpenBSD issue.
While it is true that the OpenBSD project is originally based on a
pre-1.2 NetBSD source tree, they have diverged since then, and have
not tracked NetBSD as fast as it changes.

It branched off of NetBSD. Development on both systems has diverged
significantly, to the point where saying it's `based on NetBSD' is,
quite frankly, more of a slimy marketing trick than a reality.
By the same token, you could say that FreeBSD is `based on NetBSD',
since you started with NetBSD 0.8. But I somehow doubt that's
relevant any more, or that you'd like to state it publically.

If you think that the current wording is a slimey marketing trick
rather than some guy searching for the right descriptive words at
3am then we still have a ways to go in the mutual understanding
department, but let's let it pass.
I'll amend the wording as per Jason's last request and commit the
changes. Sorry, but I've been a little busy these last couple of
days, as I'm sure you're all more than well aware, and it got pushed
on the stack.

The impleication is _not_ that it is a slimy marketing trick on your
part... but, rather, on OpenBSD's.

Hello all,
I just wanted to drop a quick note to say I had problems with your page.
So, I FTP'ed over to your site to take a look around and it looked like
directory links for 2.1.6 and associated files are gone.
Thanks

I'd just like to point out that the sentence in question was
written at the branch point when the differences between the two
were trivial. I, as the author of the sentence, deny any slimy
intent.
However, the half-life of Truth on the Internet is pretty darn
short and if you think the statement reflects badly on NetBSD, I
have no objections to changing it. Is it safe/acceptable to say
that (Free|Net|Open)BSD are all 4.4BSD derived and leave it at
that? The respective web sites can provide their own accounts of
the "Truth".

OK, Thanks Jordan,
I won't do it then :-)
BTW
I resisted asking "What's an A record then?"
& looked up my nutshell book,
only to find "A record" is indexed on page 185,
& my last book mark is on page 159 ...
so don't tell me ... I've got tonights bedtime reading :-)
Thanks !

...as stated before, the insinuation is _not_ that it's a slimy
trick on FreeBSD's part at all. It is, however, our feeling that
it's a slimy trick on OpenBSD's part.

That's fine with me; as long as NetBSD and OpenBSD are not associated
in any way.

David,
The 2.1.6 directory is no longer accessible due to security
concerns. Here's text from the new README file:
| There has been a serious security hole found in FreeBSD 2.1.6 that
| is being fixed right now. It will be replaced with a new release,
| FreeBSD 2.1.7, which will contain fixes for this and other bugs. The
| new release should be available in a day or two; sorry for any
| inconvenience.

| The FreeBSD Project
We apologize for the temporary inconvenience.

%This short notice is just to announce my resignation as President
%of the FreeBSD Project, effective immediately, coinciding with the
%elimination of that position.
Jordan,
I'm at odds as to whether or not this qualifies as news for the newsflash page.
On one hand, it is a big deal in that it is a major change; however, it does
not -directly- affect the software (although, there will no doubt be many
indirect reprecussions of this.)
Help! =)
Cheers,
nsj

Hi:
What is the latest news concerning when FreeBSD 2.2 official release will
come out?
Also when is 2.1.7 due out?
I would like to install 2.2 but may not be able to wait and be forced to
install 2.1.7
Thanks very much for the help!
Larry

See the news flash page at http://www.freebsd.org - the final GAMMA is
out now and in its 20 day countdown (we probably should have attached
the 2.2-GAMMA announcement to the newsflash entry as well as the
pointer to README.TXT).
> Also when is 2.1.7 due out?
I hope no more than 7 days from now.

I'm sending this to you, as untested code doesn't really go in send-pr
right? Is www to be sent through gnats as well?
Combined the www search and regular mailing list into one form and
ordered into three categories.
I tried to test the sgml, but I can't seem to get it to work under
2.1.5. It might be that my sgml is garbage...
Viewed as an html document it lacks all the graphics, header
etc. but seems to work. The search stuff works fine.
I think this would be better in search.cgi. Could be set to overlay a
default template for the mailing list selection, based on a couple of
simple categories. With a browser cookie it would be nifty to "save" a user
default template.
