Ports is one of the FreeBSD's Yeah, but this is NOT what I meant! Imagine that thousands of people are making, for their own use or not, thousands of free [well, GPLed] Linux apps. Why should I use Yahoo! to find that it *might* be on that world some app which could help me? Instead... I can go to linuxapps.com, take the source from there, and compile it either for Linux, either for FreeBSD!

Yes, but things could me MUCH better! I just want the _regular_ daemon, at a greater size! Not the "new" daemons! The daemon from cdrom's cover, that is. And I saw in an article, the same BSD daemon showing a "Will work for free" sticker, but it was ways too small!
