Good Grief !  Too many questions on wrong list Grant, Install BSD
& try it!  Not that questions & answers aren't interesting, but on
the wrong list.  Please read the list charter for advocacy@ you got
when you subscribed.

Those with time & interest to read a list with individual questions
are subscribed to [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Newbie questions belong on questions@,
not on [EMAIL PROTECTED]  As you appear to not yet even be commited to
being a newbie, you're over quota on advocacy@

"Compare this & that" questions can be politically loaded, often
asked by trolls, not that I'm suggesting you are, but its happened
before, & people may be walking on egg shells, trying to answer all
your questions diplomatically, but sooner or later an egg shell may
burst, to reveal those aren't safe chicken eggs but hide the snappy
fire emitting jaws of  Jurassic Park raptors ;-) I don't want to
see flames from accidents between *BSD (or Debian).

advocacy@ is to eg plan advocacy & PR campaigns & media contacts/
promos etc to attract a mass of interest in FreeBSD, It is not time
effective, or the right forum, to here support individual non user
questions. Please subscribe questions@ read http://freebsd.org more,
then post to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks.

Julian

Good job Julian. I was also interested in comparison of OSes. Now I am  
convinced

not to use freeBSD.
Many thanks, Shimon

New BUG?

[Sdävtaker]

Hello people.
I got a chance to start a BUG here, in Argentina, supported by UBA (the 
biggest local university), actually supported by it's  computer sciences 
deparment.
They started a LUG some time ago and the university give them some 
support, created a Linux Lab...
I was talking to the LUG people and they said the paperwork was too 
easy, the university is really open for these groups and they helping me 
with the papers and stuff for the BUG.
We want to get people interested in *BSD projects at university, and 
outside it, the university got researchers in OSs, and, i hope, having a 
BUG will affect them, actually they using a real big cluster with debian 
(when i said "DragonFLy can kick Debian ass in the big cluster", they 
said they didnt even know about DF...).
The university got some international conferences and congresses once, 
maybe 2 times every year and having a bug we should be able to get some 
space for BSD projects there too, mainly FBSD.
What you think, should i start the papers and talking to directives in 
the university?

Thank you for any advice you can give me.
See ya.
Sdävtaker

That's an odd response.
