We call ours simply "eBSD" -- originally a working term for "embedded BSD", but works as a word play for "reduced FreeBSD" too... :-) Our build contains certain product specific modifications to the core FreeBSD code, which might make the eBSD tag somewhat trademark-ish though. I think we could start calling our build "Cubical eBSD" if eBSD became the official moniker, and we moved to use the eBSD build mechanism. (hm, that would compress to "CeBSD", as in the WinCE ilk? not bad.) Other ideas: how about "uBSD" (think uber)? "MiniBSD"? "TinyBSD"? "CompactBSD" (think CompactPCI)? - Juha -- Juha-Matti Liukkonen, Cubical Solutions Ltd Phone: +358(0)405280142 Email: jml@cubical.fi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message
