I am starting to get questions about how the Molecules site was constructed.
http://molecules.gnu-darwin.org/ I think that it is a good example of what is possible using GNU-Darwin OS and FOSS, free and open source software. I also thought that GNU-Darwinists and others would be interested in the package set. It should be noted that these are alpha, first run packages, but we are putting them to good use. Here is the uname -a output for the current darwintel machine, which is doing all the heavy lifting. Darwin darwintel 8.0.1 Darwin Kernel Version 8.0.1: Fri Apr 29 12:18:40 PDT 2005; root:xnu-792.obj/RELEASE_I386 x86 i386 AMD Phenom(tm) X4 Quad-Core Processor GP-9500 Darwin This system has been stripped of all proprietary software, except two hardware driver binaries unfortunately, which is why we don't distribute the OS installer. One of the reasons why we operate this way is so that we can build and distribute free software that runs under current Darwin-based operating systems, like GNU-Darwin and Mac OS. Here is a link to the package directory. http://www.gnu-darwin.org/www001/packages-1.5a-CURRENT/ GNU-Darwinists with familiarity regarding our architecture may find these packages useful. If that is not the case, please consult our online help files and examples before trying this package set. Here is a link to the ports tree. http://www.gnu-darwin.org/www001/ports-1.5a-CURRENT If there are any further questions about how we are operating the Molecules site, please feel free to ask, or get a GNU-Darwin account, and look for yourself. Accounts are free for 30 days. Regards, proclus http://www.gnu-darwin.org/ -- Michael L.
