That makes me kind angry too but many other failed to show the "big corps"
what the bsd* OSs worth.
Macromedia know about freebsd, the linux dev coordinator posts about freebsd
in his product blog but they don't care.. they know that having a linux
driver is enough to have a good reputation in the OSS world. There is
a 2.5Ksignatures petition regarding flash, there are
2.5M hits with "freebsd macromedia" search string in google, they have like
hundres of *bsd messages in the wish forms... what else can be shown to
proove that we exist? Nothing... they just don't care.. unless the whole OSS
comunity speaks.. there isn't much we can do.
Anyway, I've added some boxes to the bsdstats project.
Cheers
