"Lennart Poettering: BSD Isn't Relevant Anymore"

Interestingly enough, a great deal of it is true. It might be interesting to know how others feel about it. Obviously, asking that question on this forum is like playing against a stacked deck; however, it still might prove interesting.


Yawn. I remember sitting on the can reading BSD mags in the 80s when they were saying the same thing regarding OSF. There there were/are other Linuxes, BSDs, and Unixes.

I've done a bunch of infrastructure and tasked-support work using Linux for the past couple of years. The FreeBSD pieces work better. Does Linux have some advantages? Yes. Does FreeBSD have some deficiencies? Yes.

There, I said it. I'm over it now.
