Actually, the FAQ specifically states that this is *not* about creating
binary blobs. As for any BSD involvement, GKH specifically states that he is
not involved in the development of any BSD. I am sure there are many BSD
devs who are not involved in Linux. For that matter, for all I know there
may

Hi BSD people
First of all, apologies for cross-posting but I'm looking to buy a new
laptop and simultaneously learning to run a flavour of BSD on it. I've some
