Are FreeBSD buttons available? (If not, it should be easy to take some readily available artwork and make some.) But it's still important to talk directly to the press. Many of the press people there (especially those who are NOT from computer trade pubs) won't know that a picture of Chuck The Besneakered Daemon represents something other than Linux. (They may even mistakenly believe that it represents Microsoft and/or Bill Gates.) They'd better make the point that FreeBSD is the "other, better free UNIX." Or, again, they'll be seen as supporting Linux and will have been played for fools. --Brett Glass To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
