I know the project has been going for a while, but I haven't really been paying attention. However, after logging in and checking out Compaq's machine, FreeBSD looks pretty much all there. I Need to upgrade a development (web/sql) server, but I'm not too happy with Intel's Pentium III serial numbers and so I wouldn't mind getting out of the Intel market. And Athlon, well.. maybe. I don't like how the AMD chips run so hot. - Nathan Kinsman nathan@kinsman.com --------------msC0E84F1AB9681108F4E35269 Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature; name="smime.p7s" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smime.p7s" Content-Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature MIIKHgYJKoZIhvcNAQcCoIIKDzCCCgsCAQExCzAJBgUrDgMCGgUAMAsGCSqGSIb3DQEHAaCC B6owggR0MIID3aADAgECAhASseTwLLsLvb/ggqcxyDi5MA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBAUAMIHMMRcw FQYDVQQKEw5WZXJpU2lnbiwgSW5jLjEfMB0GA1UECxMWVmVyaVNpZ24gVHJ1c3QgTmV0d29y azFGMEQGA1UECxM9d3d3LnZlcmlzaWduLmNvbS9yZXBvc2l0b3J5L1JQQSBJbmNvcnAuIEJ5 IFJlZi4sTElBQi5MVEQoYyk5ODFIMEYGA1UEAxM/VmVyaVNpZ24gQ2xhc3MgMSBDQSBJbmRp dmlkdWFsIFN1YnNjcmliZXItUGVyc29uYSBOb3QgVmFsaWRhdGVkMB4XDTk5MTAwODAwMDAw MFoXDTAwMTAwNzIzNTk1OVowggEYMRcwFQYDVQQKEw5WZXJpU2lnbiwgSW5jLjEfMB0GA1UE CxMWVmVyaVNpZ24gVHJ1c3QgTmV0d29yazFGMEQGA1UECxM9d3d3LnZlcmlzaWduLmNvbS9y ZXBvc2l0b3J5L1JQQSBJbmNvcnAuIGJ5IFJlZi4sTElBQi5MVEQoYyk5ODEeMBwGA1UECxMV UGVyc29uYSBOb3QgVmFsaWRhdGVkMTMwMQYDVQQLEypEaWdpdGFsIElEIENsYXNzIDEgLSBO ZXRzY2FwZSBGdWxsIFNlcnZpY2UxFzAVBgNVBAMUDk5hdGhhbiBLaW5zbWFuMSYwJAYJKoZI hvcNAQkBFhduYXRoYW5rQG1lbnRpc3dvcmtzLmNvbTCBnzANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOBjQAw gYkCgYEAsojBBv29ymfAWBiRJRXbcGN1HG+l8SvX1ThQM8I/dUL5pNtlRMFxxZ48XhAcpEIr zOx1duhKw5XlP1+vlR50rvr6kreYAR5wZIfxFZ7A/Yqt2mkWeaRzIo2CNetSo7w7BhOQIr5r e0Pld+nCTgGH1+Yf1znQ+vIE2W2jWb3sASsCAwEAAaOCAQYwggECMAkGA1UdEwQCMAAwgawG A1UdIASBpDCBoTCBngYLYIZIAYb4RQEHAQEwgY4wKAYIKwYBBQUHAgEWHGh0dHBzOi8vd3d3 LnZlcmlzaWduLmNvbS9DUFMwYgYIKwYBBQUHAgIwVjAVFg5WZXJpU2lnbiwgSW5jLjADAgEB Gj1WZXJpU2lnbidzIENQUyBpbmNvcnAuIGJ5IHJlZmVyZW5jZSBsaWFiLiBsdGQuIChjKTk3 IFZlcmlTaWduMBEGCWCGSAGG+EIBAQQEAwIHgDAzBgNVHR8ELDAqMCigJqAkhiJodHRwOi8v Y3JsLnZlcmlzaWduLmNvbS9jbGFzczEuY3JsMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBAUAA4GBACxn9jnw0aik NNXC7BXuWeHtEaP0mkMs2K8+XQwZWTV1S8wJaW6WNJPyXKpAJwgqOtT+GixBbhiWiqyWlF8e OAFgd8c1z3BJV+1uROYsByh7ZdTxwTwrkps2vMTtU3Ef90MYpjMTLXiPKI5vNoqqsGFJrlzy sMBGjPc4mhbFQi94MIIDLjCCApegAwIBAgIRANJ2Lo0UDD19sqglXa/uDXUwDQYJKoZIhvcN AQECBQAwXzELMAkGA1UEBhMCVVMxFzAVBgNVBAoTDlZlcmlTaWduLCBJbmMuMTcwNQYDVQQL Ey5DbGFzcyAxIFB1YmxpYyBQcmltYXJ5IENlcnRpZmljYXRpb24gQXV0aG9yaXR5MB4XDTk4 MDUxMjAwMDAwMFoXDTA4MDUxMjIzNTk1OVowgcwxFzAVBgNVBAoTDlZlcmlTaWduLCBJbmMu MR8wHQYDVQQLExZWZXJpU2lnbiBUcnVzdCBOZXR3b3JrMUYwRAYDVQQLEz13d3cudmVyaXNp Z24uY29tL3JlcG9zaXRvcnkvUlBBIEluY29ycC4gQnkgUmVmLixMSUFCLkxURChjKTk4MUgw RgYDVQQDEz9WZXJpU2lnbiBDbGFzcyAxIENBIEluZGl2aWR1YWwgU3Vic2NyaWJlci1QZXJz b25hIE5vdCBWYWxpZGF0ZWQwgZ8wDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEBBQADgY0AMIGJAoGBALtaRIoEFrtV /QN6ii2UTxV4NrgNSrJvnFS/vOh3Kp258Gi7ldkxQXB6gUu5SBNWLccI4YRCq8CikqtEXKpC 8IIOAukv+8I7u77JJwpdtrA2QjO1blSIT4dKvxna+RXoD4e2HOPMxpqOf2okkuP84GW6p7F+ 78nbN2rISsgJBuSZAgMBAAGjfDB6MBEGCWCGSAGG+EIBAQQEAwIBBjBHBgNVHSAEQDA+MDwG C2CGSAGG+EUBBwEBMC0wKwYIKwYBBQUHAgEWH3d3dy52ZXJpc2lnbi5jb20vcmVwb3NpdG9y eS9SUEEwDwYDVR0TBAgwBgEB/wIBADALBgNVHQ8EBAMCAQYwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQECBQADgYEA iLg3O93alDcAraqf4YEBcR6Sam0v9vGd08pkONwbmAwHhluFFWoPuUmFpJXxF31ntH8tLN2a Qp7DPrSOquULBt7yVir6M8e+GddTTMO9yOMXtaRJQmPswqYXD11YGkk8kFxVo2UgAP0YIOVf gqaxqJLFWGrBjQM868PNBaKQrm4xggI8MIICOAIBATCB4TCBzDEXMBUGA1UEChMOVmVyaVNp Z24sIEluYy4xHzAdBgNVBAsTFlZlcmlTaWduIFRydXN0IE5ldHdvcmsxRjBEBgNVBAsTPXd3 dy52ZXJpc2lnbi5jb20vcmVwb3NpdG9yeS9SUEEgSW5jb3JwLiBCeSBSZWYuLExJQUIuTFRE KGMpOTgxSDBGBgNVBAMTP1ZlcmlTaWduIENsYXNzIDEgQ0EgSW5kaXZpZHVhbCBTdWJzY3Jp YmVyLVBlcnNvbmEgTm90IFZhbGlkYXRlZAIQErHk8Cy7C72/4IKnMcg4uTAJBgUrDgMCGgUA oIGxMBgGCSqGSIb3DQEJAzELBgkqhkiG9w0BBwEwHAYJKoZIhvcNAQkFMQ8XDTk5MTAyMTE5 NTkyOVowIwYJKoZIhvcNAQkEMRYEFIdTJHnCJpKP8GYTwBxvNzNwHAEXMFIGCSqGSIb3DQEJ DzFFMEMwCgYIKoZIhvcNAwcwDgYIKoZIhvcNAwICAgCAMAcGBSsOAwIHMA0GCCqGSIb3DQMC AgFAMA0GCCqGSIb3DQMCAgEoMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUABIGARXQN4oRi8/WaJKxhiXg0KpZn /RF4BJ9fX1K820ORXIHxx+EyHh9BhsXHQzNZz8BfP43LLuWdtGl17gy2RxqmhLVAIFEscxAO 4xoZ2zMFOy6nlqBQo/gcyWCGr/iO2mL8LC1qQAAzTb02KdMV9tp6uoE2TvGmjbrIcJuBwjYn Ehk= --------------msC0E84F1AB9681108F4E35269-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
