--=-=-= Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Folks: There is a project underway that should help to address some of the concerns (particularly presenting BSD in a professional manner to suits, techies, newbies, etc.) being raised on this list of late. The project of which I speak has a mailing list, currently located here: https://secure.daemonnews.org/mailman/listinfo/bsd-advocacy One of the goals of the project is to produce two sites, the first at www.bsdadvocacy.org, which will serve as an advocacy clearinghouse, with whitepapers, flyers, presentations, etc. that---in theory---should prove to be extremely useful to advocates as well as painting a pretty picture of the various BSDs. The other site, www.bsdevents.org, will simply serve up a blog to address advocacy opportunities, in an effort to bring advocates together in their areas and around the globe. It is my hope that the information on these sites will reach a level of quality and professionalism that BSD platforms deserve, so that the BSDs will have a very convenient and powerful advocacy arsenal standing behind them. This will move the BSDs into a niche, because IMO, most platforms do not have truth and objectivity backing them up (and let's face it, the BSDs are ~truly~ a force to be reckoned with). If you would like to participate in the project, please sign up to the mailing list. Things have been rather slow-going initially, but we're slowly starting to pull things together. =2D-=20 Anthony Chavez http://www.anthonychavez.org/ mailto:acc@anthonychavez.org jabber:acc@anthonychavez.org --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (Darwin) iD8DBQA/ZjIWbZTbIaRBRXERAnmhAJ96jC9ZXUMrgQTqzN3h7ptd3jC3wACfZ60W n+qUOOgcrRtIuql2cI94Gz0= =0G15 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
