Since our founding in 1998, our services have been powered by FreeBSD and we now have over 55,000 web sites using Atomz hosted services. Companies that use Atomz hosted services include Macromedia, Palm, Handspring, Maxtor, CBS News, Sony Playstation, Princess Cruises, Kohler, U.S. Customs Department, Johnson & Johnson Lifescan, Red Herring Magazine, and the list goes on and on. I wanted to offer the use of the Atomz search service for the FreeBSD.org web site for free. I believe that this could improve the overall quality of the FreeBSD.org web site and make it easier for people to find information out about our favorite operating system -- FreeBSD. I put together a quick example of Atomz Search for the FreeBSD.org web site at the following URL: http://mike.demo.atomz.com/freebsd/ This example is searching about 2600 documents on the FreeBSD.org web site. With a little more work we could search the entire email archives in the same manner and the foreign language sections of the site. Because of the value at Atomz we have found in FreeBSD, I would make our services available to the FreeBSD.org web site for free. We normally sell our search service for $15,000 to $100,000 depending on the customer requirements so I hope that you can see that this is a very powerful service. I would also offer technical assistance from our company to assist with making sure FreeBSD.org is getting a top quality implementation of our web service. I would also be willing to offer our content management system, Atomz Publish, as well if you think that would be useful to the FreeBSD organization. In any case, I hope that this offer seems attractive. If you have questions or would like to discuss this further, please contact me at mike@atomz.com or by phone at 650-244-5602. Thank you for helping to support the creation of a wonderful operating system.
