>Mr. O'reilly,
>    I applaud ORA's endorsement of Open Source software. It is a huge step
>to gather together the "forefathers" of some of the most popular and stable
>software in use on the Internet today.
>    Personally, I use FreeBSD and was wondering if there was any particular
>reason that the developers of FreeBSD were not included in your "Freeware
>Summit".
>    FreeBSD has much to offer over Linux and has a huge developer/user
base,
>including Yahoo! and CDROM.COM.

>Sincerely,
>David Shanes
