I'm quite new to FreeBSD too (RHEL/Fedora background), and am most impressed with it so far. The first thing to mention is that this is an extremely helpful list (I won't call it a newsgroup because it isn't one, though I read it via gmane), and as such is most useful. Ask away! Secondly (and probably stating the obvious), the handbook <http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/>; is the place I always look first. Good luck!
