I already hear everybody shouting, when bringing in the following idea: Base pfsense on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD. Debian has some great features, like it's packaging system and it's build infrastructure. I could imaginge to have a virtual package pfsense, which depends on all official Debian kFreeBSD packages that pfsense needs to run plus the ones which are unique to pfsense provided by a pfsense repository (or on a long term get even incorporated into Debian). Debian has package signing and does a lot to have a working, secure system. I could imagine many tasks that pfsense developers do, would be done by Debian, also pfsense could profit from Debian's infrastructure. You could concentrate on pfsense and could get the distribution type of work done.
If you like to flame me for this, my private mail box is open ...:-) Regards, Adrian. _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
