In particular, I would like information about : * Large BSD installations * Performance advantages of FreeBSD * Specific subsystems where we excel * Other technical reasons why _YOU_ choose BSD. The current work in progress is available at : http://people.freebsd.org/~murray/ I want to create a comprehensive body of knowledge that can then be used to make fliers to hand out to Linux weenies at trade shows, published on bsdi.com and/or freebsd.org, etc.. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, - Murray To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
