Re: Out of curiousity: Who am I mailing to?
Hi, Sir, I'm totally a beginner and I'm glad cause it seems to me that I always get response to every question that I send to freebsd mailing list. And not just one, but I always receive more than what I really need!(isn't it cool!) Welcome to FreeBSD. I'm just wondrin' who exactly am I mailing to? Are you all employees from FreeBSD Mailing Center? And those mails coming from other users like me that are being sent to my e-mail, can I reply to them if ever I know the answer and want to share my knowledge? That's all. There is no such thing. In fact there aren't any employees. FreeBSD is written and maintained by volunteers (tho a few are fortunate that their employers where-ever they work consider their contribution to FreeBSD to be valid parts of their jobs). Anyway there is no central FreeBSD staff and the Email list is responded to voluntarily by the subscribers, like yourself, who have subscribed to the list to learn and contribute. jerry Smile! jay ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It is my understanding that there are - or were - a very small number of people who work directly for FreeBSD. (Jordan Hubard (now with Apple) and Kirk McCusick come to mind.)

Well, they can answer for themselves if they choose. I don't know their details. Anyway there is no central FreeBSD staff THe Core Team is the closest approximation. Sort of, but they still are not employed by FreeBSD, even if FreeBSD employs a lot of their time and mental (and other) resources. jerry and the Email list is responded to voluntarily by the subscribers, like yourself, who have subscribed to the list to learn and contribute.

Re: Out of curiousity: Who am I mailing to?
You are mailing to a list that has thousands of users ... We all see the emails sent here. And if we know the answer, any one of us (you too) can send that in to help the original questioner, and to contribute to the general knowledge pool... (keep reading the emails - you will learn from other peoples questions just as much as you hope to learn from your own) Mind expansion begins here -- . -- Enjoy. mjt On Wed, 2004-05-12 at 14:42, Mark Jayson Alvarez wrote: Sir, I'm totally a beginner and I'm glad cause it seems to me that I always get response to every question that I send to freebsd mailing list.
