If we could offer a server and connectivity, getting a "Powered by FreeBSD"
banner on the developer pages would incite discussion and debate, ultimately
promoting FreeBSD awareness among a very talented set of developers. Better
still if we can offer space for the main web page and share visibility with
one of Linux's fastest growing products.
