There was a long long discussion about this on freebsd-chat about 6 months ago. I don't know if Operating Systems are male or female or neuter (gramatically speaking, and being multi-lingual it sometimes causes me an irrelevant amount of anguish). I think it would be safe to call all FreeBSD releases, Never_come_on_Time :) I must add, my reply is meant in gest. Humour is not noticeable on FreeBSD-questions. But, and here I am being serious, I think FreeBSD is developing and maintaining a Heritage. It is kind of cautious about it's offspring. I have tried on my network, for professional reasons, just about every version of Linux around. They do not work out of the box, as they claim to. Well, if you want to reply to this then do so to me personally. Questions is already busy enough. -- Regards Cliff [ This mail has been checked as virus-free ] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

There was a wonderfully humorous (though short) exchange on chat around November 1st, '02... you really should check the archives. That said, I don't guess there have been code names for FBSD specifically, although the history of the BSD's is replete with such...generally western US cities...I can't see such things with FBSD, though, I mean, 5.1 -POTATO would require all the docs to be rewritten, among other things :-) Kevin Kinsey To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
