Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-advocacy@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Reposted for Louis Bertrand, news editor for our e-zine DaemonNews >>>>>>>>>>> Hello all, I'm the news editor for Daemon News and I want to make sure that all three open-source BSDs get fair representation on the news page. Please send us information about the progress of the FreeBSD project. You can write it up as a short article (2-3 paragraphs) or a quick note (2-3 lines). If writing is not your strong point, we can help you with style. What's important is the news item itself and your perspective. We're also starting a column tentatively called "Commit Log". This will be a point-form listing of the little changes and improvements made during the month, somewhat like the scores page in a sports paper. I'd like someone with commit privileges on FreeBSD to forward the month's information to me. Last month, we had to drop a few items because there was no convenient place for them. The "commit log" page will remedy this. Any trends or significant events in the column can be pulled out and made into a full news article. Any mention of FreeBSD (or any *BSD) in the mainstream press is also welcome. We'll have a small column for "BSD in the press", with possibly a full review if it's a significant article. This also includes any papers, articles or "white papers" you wrote. You can send stuff directly to myself: louis@signalpath.on.ca or louis@odel.on.ca or to the DaemonNews article address: article@daemonnews.org a The latest news page is April 99: http://www.daemonnews.org/199904/news.html Thanks --Louis <<<<<<<<<<<<< Thank _you_, Louis, you're doing a great job and I'm looking forward to the expansions you were talking about on our private list! -- Don Wilde "Bringing the Internet to everyone!"
