I just acn't think of any.. 1. What is the status of the FreeBSD-sparc project? 2. How did it get started 4. How far along is the port? 8. Is there a kernel at this point? 16. How can I get access to the source? 32. Will FreeBSD-sparc be integrated with existing FreeBSD code, or exist as a seperate project? 64. Web/online resources? > > > 4.

You want to know something about freebd, you look to ftp.freebsd.org, www.freebsd.org, cvsup.freebsd.org. I really don't think we want to look like we are all over the place like in Linuxville. I just don't care for that level of anarchy. I'm not trying to quell your level of enthusiasm, but what is wrong with using www.freebsd.org? -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.ucdavis.edu -or- obrien@FreeBSD.org)
