For example, we *really* need to change http://www.freebsd.org to convey a feeling of activity and success around FreeBSD. I posted a simple request for someone to volunteer to revamp the web page and got ZERO response. Why is that? Is it because the group is lazy when it comes to promoting FreeBSD , the group does not understand the importance of demonstrating the capability and success of FreeBSD, or we don't have any web developers? I sincerely believe that the answer to my question is (a) we are lazy when it comes to promoting FreeBSD. Now, if this was a Linux forum , I bet we would have had by now several dozen volunteers for the task . I believe thats the biggest difference between FreeBSD and Linux .
