The mailing list was practicaly silent, except for spam, for a pretty long time, so I guess whoever was responsible for it had shut it down. I myself am happy with FreeBSD, and also use it for a public service that's not unknown in the right circles (http://libagent.cs.technion.ac.il.), but Linux rules high here at the Technion, at least among the students. As for the department's official policies, I tried to introduce FreeBSD formally here, but didn't have much luck. They're pretty much stuck with what they have, and the only new thing they're ready to hear about is Linux or NT.
