Appliance certification

2009-04-04 Thread Christopher Olsen
I have been asking around to see if there is a committee that certifies 
applainces, servers, workstations, etc? 

I manufacture several BSD based systems and I'm sure there are many others that 
do as well and it would be really great to get the BSD community blessing for 
it and put a little logo sticker on it similar to what MS does.

If there is no such thing I would like to start such a committee and would love 
any support in that if possible.

RE: bsdnotlinux.org Domain

2009-04-24 Thread Christopher Olsen
Linh,

If you have not had any takers on the domain I would be interested.. I won't be 
able to fully utilize it immediately, but would start with having it forwarded 
to my bsd related blog and go from there with it.

Subject: bsdnotlinux.org Domain

I'm not sure if this is the proper place for this, but...

I am currently have the domain bsdnotlinux.org registered and had been
using it to host a basic page with links about BSD. Unfortunately, the
site has not been updated in a long time and I have no further ambitions
to do anything with the site or domain.

With that, I'm willing to transfer the domain to any BSD user/advocacy
groups before the registration expires and gets in the hands of domain
squatters.

Once transfered, I will stop serving up the site and host DNS for the
domain as well.

Please contact me off-list if you are interested.

Thanks.

Re: virtualbox-ose on FBSD

2012-01-30 Thread Christopher Olsen
Paul,

I have too had good results with VB.. However what I find it lacks is a good 
central management solution. That is something even Xen falls short on..

Also are you utilizing a local ZFS? If so be careful on memory allocation all 
around.

Re: About FreeBSD.org visitors

2013-10-04 Thread Christopher Henderson
Hello Unix Fans,

I'm an on again/off again BSD/Linux user.  I'll spend a few years in one, then 
the other, etc.  I'm getting the FreeBSD itch again so I visited the website.  
One big problem for me is that there is no obvious link from the front page 
listing supported hardware.  I finally stumbled upon the release notes but its 
just a flat text file.  Why not HTML?  I hated having to scroll through it to 
find out if my wifi card is supported (Alas, it is not.  But OpenBSD supports 
it.).  That is my only real complaint.  The general design hasn't changed 
since the 90s when I first discovered FreeBSD 3.3 but I don't see that as a bad 
thing.  The NetBSD site was in bad need of an overhaul.  I like the new look.

On a final note, I have a BSD tattoo if anyone is interested.  I don't know if 
it is appropriate to share a picture on this thread.

Sincerely,
~Christopher
