Sender: hackers-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk As the melbourne, FL. Freebsd support engineer and general advocate I am gradually getting converts from the linux and solaris folks. I think this is a good idea and the timing is right, count me in for a few hundred. I am amazed at how many times people comment on what a great OS this is but does it come in a nice box like LINUX, AARRRGGG. We would have to have a good consortium logo, would the giantstep be it. Being artistically impaired, some would say severly handicapped :-) , this is an area where I could contribute nothing. Who would work on the draft charter?
