Since you are now added to the list, there is a representative of the "fanatical" wing of BSD included (no offense intended). I would also like to see the "moderate" wing represented. One suggestion is Brian Behlendorf. He is not a member of the BSD community per-se, but he is a core member of Apache which uses a BSD-like license, and a member of the Open Source Initiative. Apache is the most successful Open Source project to date, and it ain't under the GPL. -- David Johnson ___________________ http://www.usermode.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
