Apologies if this has already been reported here, I'm not subscribed
to the list.

The intro to a recent article on SLashdot entitled "FreeBSD in the Penguin's
Shadow" states:

             An anonymous reader sent us an article
             about FreeBSD, and life in Linux's Shadow.
             Interesting article about the culture difference
             between Linux and FreeBSD users. Its a good one for
             you FreeBSD fans and you curious Linux users alike.
             I wish more BSD stuff came down the pipe here, but
             Linux just has the vast majority of the submissions
             here too. 

Given that slashdot is one of the highest-profile "hacker" news sites, I think
it would be a great opportunity for some visible PR. It's certainly heartening
to know that the editors aren't as linux-centric as their content would lead
you to believe.

The article itself is at
http://www.upside.com/texis/mvm/down_the_toilet?id=3714d4820 and is quite a
positve one - nice work, Josef and Jordan!
