An interesting counterpoint to the "any clueless luser should be able to install XXX" philosophy: http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-devel-9903/msg02288.html I do not agree with the conclusions of this interesting article, but I do agree with some of the "dangers" he spells out, as they apply to FreeBSD in particular. Perhaps Daemon News should drop a quick reference to this in News Items? I'd be interested in discussing this here in freebsd-advocacy as well, and in prompting discussions among the NetBSD and OpenBSD groups as well, as to how we can or SHOULD strike a balance between making the installation easy enough, but not waste time on minutiae. -- Wes To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
