This is Yang Hyun Ju from south korea. Thesedays, I got a paper regarding 'The BSD Daemon'. In the paper, I had difficulty in understanding the prase " There is a gallery of FreeBSD related publications that use variations of the daemon graphic" ; RE 1. What's meaning of 'gallery' I found your site also mentioned 'gallery' with daemon image. I understand it relative websites which have demon image and banner. but something odd I thought. So please explain me more detailed story. 2. RE : "Chuck" my paper said that " it should also be noted that, despite Kirk's professed aversion to this fact, there is close to unanimous agreement that the daemon's name, should he have one at all, is Chuck". It means Many people agrees that daemon's name should be "Chuck"! right? Another one, is there any connection between "daemon" and the word "Chuck" Thaks for your kind attention. awaiting your soonest reply. regards/ Yang Hyun Ju I have no explaination of what is meant by gallery. I do have a very strong opinion about the daemon's name. His name is NOT Chuck; that is a name cooked up by some advertising droid at Walnut Creek. Despite my comments to the contrary, they persist in calling him Chuck. He is very proud of the fact that he does not have a name, he is just the BSD daemon. If you insist on a name, call him beastie. Kirk McKusick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
