It seems to me that it would be a lot more interesting to have the ports/build frameworks set up to accomodate building "these things" out of the src/ tree. In other words, I believe that picobsd needs to come out of src/release and am not in favor of repeating its history. This is not a strike against these variants however; I sincerely believe that they would be more actively maintained as "ports" and also permit wider participation than the current situation does. I prototyped an "outside the tree" variant once and even got it to boot but ran into other problems related to the severe breakage that has been present with PicoBSD for a long time now. ports/itsybsd anyone? :-) Cheers, Jerry Hicks gehicks@cisco.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message
