Actually, that's not true; the FreeBSD project, nor the FreeBSD foundation, sell CD's. It is true that FreeBSD Mall, Inc., sells official FreeBSD CD-ROMs, and that the FreeBSD project receives its share of the revenue; but that is completely different from "the FreeBSD project sells CD's", and actually not that different from "A huge number of people sell Debian CD's, and some of them give the Debian project its share of the revenue". -- Fun will now commence -- Seven Of Nine, "Ashes to Ashes", stardate 53679.4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
