A new mailing list has been established for FreeBSD users in bioscientific fields, including bioinformatics, genomics, and all branches of computational biology. The aim of the list is not only to form a single point of contact for FreeBSD users in these fields, but also to form a staging area for porting bioscientific applications to FreeBSD. (Just watch the "biology" category in the ports tree during upcoming months! :-) For reasons which I have outlined before in these lists, I think that there is a need for a "bio-friendly" free Unix, and I would (of course) like FreeBSD to be it. For reasons which I have also outlined before, I think that such a bio-friendly OS could attract significant numbers of new users. Mail to this new mailing list may be addressed to <freebsd-bio@freebsd.net>. *** YES, that is .NET, and _NOT_ .ORG! *** The freebsd-bio list is in no way officially connected with or endorsed by the FreeBSD project or BSDi, Inc. To subscribe to the list, either: - Do so via the web front-end at: http://www.plig.net/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bio - Send the word "subscribe" in the body of an email message to <freebsd-bio-request@freebsd.net> Thank you, -- Johann To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
