FreeBSD Mall, Inc. is happy to announce the availability of FreeBSD 4.11 CD products. The four CD set is shipping this week to subscribers around the world. If you haven't yet placed your order, you may do so at http://www.freebsdmall.com. We are proud of our long relationship with the FreeBSD Developer Community. In 2004, sales at FreeBSD Mall, Inc. were returned to the FreeBSD Community in the following ways : * $5,000 donated to the FreeBSD Foundation (a small portion of the overall contribution to the project) * Employed documentation authors to work on a new edition of the FreeBSD Handbook. * Part-time employment contracts to allow FreeBSD committers to improve the FreeBSD Handbook, packages, and support release engineering activities. * Donated thousands of free CDs, and the postage required to mail them to developers around the world. * Paid marketing staff to increase mindshare and market FreeBSD CDs and Books to stores such as CompUSA, Borders Books, Fry's, and other retail outlets in the U.S., Japan, and Europe. * Developed and printed FreeBSD flyers in multiple languages, and used them to distribute at LinuxExpo and other advocacy events. * Sponsored user group meetings around the world. In addition to CD and DVD products, we also have a large collection of FreeBSD shirts, hats, jackets, boxer shorts, stickers, case-plates, coffee mugs, mouse pads, and other promotional materials. Thanks and enjoy! - Murray Stokely FreeBSD Mall, Inc.
