Re: Contribute to base
Use the system. Soon enough you'll find something you don't like or that could work better. One thing that's tickled me since I've used OpenBSD is the lack of a DHCPv6 client and server in base. Since I can't program, please be my guest, OP! Is there a reason why dhcpcd is not included in base?

Deep down, I'm actually so saddened to see the original, and still performing, PDP-11 has become so divided first splitting into three incompatible DEC productlines, and then further diluted efforts with Intel and MIPS, and then all the other companies... That's all I was trying to say. Yes, I'm mocking the OP's severe lack of education. Lack of variation and competition always sucks more.

And besides, the original Version 7 AT UNIX has been more or less free for several years now, so if you don't like the forks, you are welcome to run the real thing. For your convenience, the OpenBSD project is even providing the Version 7 manuals online: https://man.openbsd.org/UNIX-7/boot.8 https://man.openbsd.org/?query=.=1=UNIX-7 In the unlikely case that you lack a PDP-11, i'm sure it will be easy for you to port it to amd64. After all, most of the system was written in K C, so it should still compile, with some minor adjustments. Yours, Ingo

Deep down, I'm actually so saddened to see the original, and still performing, UNIX has become so divided first splitting into three *BSD communities, and then further diluted efforts with GNU and the Linux kernel...
