But if it's not official... then..) >=20 Well, then, FreeBSD is with priority for multi-million-euro companies? No one knows whether those companies like Suse or similar are not undermined by the US agencies or those from Telaviv. What about Microsoft and its funny Zero-Day bugs? Do you trust that company, which does not give any insight in its code? This shit is even more widespread in governments, agencies and defence than "real" traitors. Even a multi-million-what-so-ever has to decide on their own what to get, where to get it from and this is obviously not argument NOT giving such valuable informations the community at hand like pub.allbsd.org. For years outdated stuff from a Period when freeBSD 4.X outperformed the Linux crap is sometimes still present on the FreeBSD pages (luckily, those has gone after a load of discussion). --------------enig4F73BAF636BD69D68BDE37C4 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.18 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iF4EAREIAAYFAk7wZ2sACgkQU6Ni+wtCKv+PmwEApd9VrRs07X5JK2gjrWXzAhC5 kjmT4HnIIDMOCYA1l7IBAI8RpHQMZrCMWz2vblYmNEE5jRxqXeRwgPbI00wQUkLC =kFov -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig4F73BAF636BD69D68BDE37C4--
