> What ever happened to that huge amount of installer code that > The FreeBSD Project funded with that Russian(?) guy? 1. It wasn't the project who funded or really had much of anything to do with it, it was Walnut Creek CDROM 2. It wasn't a huge amount of code. 3. It's called libh and there's already a mailing list devoted to it and several volunteers devoted to its gradual improvement. Where have you been? One assumes you at least read the paper I did on the topic of installers where libh is also described fully. 4. You seem to be almost compelled to furnish a stream of singularly unhelpful replies to this topic lately, providing everything from citations to proprietary projects which run counter to the goals of the FreeBSD project to manufactured descriptions of projects like libh. It really makes me wish you'd choose to focus all the free time you now so obviously have now on actually writing code; that would be a refreshing change from your current operational model. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
