I think we might have a minor misunderstanding here... While I'm interested in writing BSD advocacy articles and submitting them to news orgs and ezines, I'm not really prepared to do that without input and direction from... well... the core team, I suppose. I suppose I was thinking of a process more like: (a) Someone suggests a good topic for an article ("3.1 released and it's fabulous"). (b) I write it. (c) It gets posted somewhere for comment (d) I submit it to... whoever... reuters :-) (I guess I'm just very cautious about writing anything for 'FreeBSD' rather than just for me. So, I'll happily stand up and write about my personal experiences and opinions and stuff in a public forum, but I'd be much more cautious about writing, in some sense, on behalf of a larger group...)
