Hi,

I'm new to this list and figured I would drop a quick note to say hello...

I'm not sure why I haven't joined this list soon but I would have to say 
that
I'm of the biggest FBSD advocates in the NY metro area... Switching 
companies
on a regular basis...

How are things in the rest of the world?

-Christopher

Hi all

I did not found this information on www.freebsd.org and google also did not 
told me any correct date, so I just wanna to make a clear and ask - is there 
any official date of birth for "Beastie" :)

http://www.freebsd.org/releases/
says that it is a "1.0 (November, 1993)"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freebsd 
says that: "The first official release was FreeBSD 1.0 in December 1993"

In the same time meetBSD California 2008 is sheduled for November 15th

So, is it that 15.11.1993 is the official birthday date? =)

Consider that it's a weekend.  Consider MeetBSD is schedule after LISA  
2008,
by design.

The rest is left as an exercise for the reader.

Beastie is far older than FreeBSD; the idea of a daemon as a mascot for
Unix predates even the CSRG BSD.  Phil Foglio drew the first version in
1976.  John Lasseter first drew what we currently know as Beastie for a
book cover in 1984; he drew a second version for the 4.3BSD book in 1988
and a third for the 4.4BSD book in 1994.  The 1988 version is the most
widely used today.

The amd64 linuxulator only handles 32-bit linux binaries currently, so it 
won't be able to run this.
