No, they were initialliy acquired by WRS along with the other software assets of BSDi. Only the hardware portion of BSDi was split off at the acquisition. Later the FreeBSD side of BSDi at WRS was laid off and the FreeBSD CDROM production and web store were bought by the original owner of Walnut Creek CDROM. Hence the confusion. My best guess is that WRS still holds the FreeBSD trademark. -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/
