Well, it's not as if they'd be losing any revenue. They'd be making it more convenient to get the free version, which means that more people would try it and upgrade to paid versions. And this would offload some of the FTP traffic from their overburdened servers. In other words, it's a win all around: they, users, AND FreeBSD.org would all benefit. I sure HOPE they'd go for that. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
