It does not give a > good image of FreeBSD, IMHO. "FreeBSD" has done no such thing and I can't understand why you could even infer such a thing from the available evidence: % whois redhat.org ... TotalConnect Internet (REDHAT3-DOM) 3715 Blenkinsop Rd. Victoria, BC V8P-3P2 As even the most elementary research shows, this is clearly a Canadian site. It has absolutely nothing to do with the FreeBSD Project, nor does: Huot, Marc (MHH155) marc@DREAMFORGE.NET 3715 Blenkinsop Rd. Victoria BC V8P-3P2 Visiting dreamforge.net's web site also does not indicate that there is any connection between this site and FreeBSD in any official way. This is the Internet. Until Network Solutions changes their registration policy, people can register whichever domains they damn well please, including pepsi.net or iamlinustorvalds.com, and point them wherever they want them to point. None of this, however, has anything to do with the FreeBSD project, it's nothing that the FreeBSD project can change and I'm mystified that anyone could ever think otherwise. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
