in the abstract, the part about teen_agers making meaningful contributions i find particularly intriguing. i've been meaning to inquire about this for some time and this is as good a time as any. does a transcript of the presentation exist ? rob spellberg woodstock, illinois, usa Robert Watson wrote: While at Google a couple of weeks ago, I gave my "How the FreeBSD Project Works" talk.
