1 George Neville-Neil and Bryan Lunduke discuss BSD and Linux
=============================================================
I just watched [a video] where our good [George Neville-Neil]
spends a bit over an hour trying to convince Bryan Lunduke to use
FreeBSD instead of Linux. Well, that's at least how the video is
pitched ; it's actually pretty different from that, and much more
interesting. We get a good debate on licensing and the
shortcomings of *both* licences (BSD and GPL), some insights into
how George actually uses FreeBSD (which, I believe, explains a
lot about why FreeBSD is developed the way it is; but I leave
that to a longer post I'll write Real Soon Now^TM) and some
discussion on the importance of marketing in free software.
