'BSD Magazine' and 'FreeBSD Press' seem to be the most successful
(Japanese).  They've been mentioned before in relation to this
reorganization.  There were others in the past and may still be others
in different languages, but those are the ones that frequently have
interviews with FreeBSD committers and relevant topical information
about FreeBSD.

There were others (Japanese) and maybe some in other countries as wel.
