The attached clarification from core points to a page that we're not on because of the current organisation of the handbook. I'm not sure there's a good reason to separate the list based on CD/DVD, it'd make more sense to just list all distributors on a single page. -----Forwarded Message----- > From: Greg 'groggy' Lehey > To: announce@FreeBSD.org > Subject: Clarification: producers of FreeBSD CD-ROMs > Date: 06 May 2002 18:51:20 +0930 > > Possibly as the result of the end of support by Wind River, a certain > amount of confusion has arisen about the relationship between the > FreeBSD project and producers of FreeBSD CD-ROMs. The core team would > like to make the following points clear: > > 1.
