At http://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html#bsd an unidentified writer at the FSF (most likely Bradley Kuhn) writes: "The BSD system was developed by UC Berkeley as non-free software in the 80s, and became free in the early 90s." And later, just below that, "The BSD developers were inspired to make their code free software by the example of the GNU Project, and explicit appeals from GNU activists helped convince them to start...." It seems to me that those who know the true history of BSD should protest this attempt to rewrite history vigorously. --Brett Glass To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
