It is overall a very well written article. Mike Tansca of Sextex Communications, who I see on the various FreeBSD lists quite often, was even quoted in the article. The only nit I have is that the relationship between BSDi and FreeBSD wasn't clarified, and the uninformed could get the idea from the article that BSDi somehow had a lote more control over FreeBSD than it really does because "BSD and FreeBSD code will be merged", and thats about all that was said other than the offering of technical support from BSDi. The relationship cited between Walnut Creek and FreeBSD was unambiguous, citing only that Walnut Creek marketed a FreeBSD distribution, which is exactly the case. Again, overall a very well written article. Whomever convinced S/W Expert to publish this deserves a hand! :-) -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet.
