of our platforms."

Electronic
Times: Wind River buys into open source but avoids Linux
Another news article about Wind River and BSDi: "Wind River would
keep some part of BSD private and not release all of its software in
open-source form. The company is likely to bring some projects forward,
such as support for symmetric multiprocesing."

BSD performance watch: new queues from set of system calls

was to spawn a thread for each connection."

FreeBSD 4.0 Sysctl Mechanism
Zhihui Zhang shares
a lot of information about sysctl. "It lets us gather information of a
running kernel and configure it to some extent without rebuilding a new
kernel. It can also be very useful for kernel debugging."

Open Magazine:
BSD's link to the Internet protocol stack
"Because BSD user utilities are maintained by the same projects
maintaining the kernels, new releases of the BSDs all properly support v6
in their user code. For example, a user of NetBSD 1.5 can telnet or ssh
over v6, traceroute v6 networks, send e-mail over v6, or even do NFS
mounts over v6."

Wasabi Systems
welcomes Wind River's endorsement of BSD operating system
"Wind River's purchase of BSDi's software assets
is a major endorsement of embedded BSD, and we are excited that BSD now
has such a well-funded spokesman ... we see Wind River's open source
offerings as complementary, rather than competitive in nature." (Press
release)

O'Reilly
Network: Is BSD Taking the Spotlight Away From Linux?
"... the business-unfriendly GPL has played a key role in keeping
Linux from being adopted by major players in the embedded arena."

Daemon News:
Why I Switched to FreeBSD
"I was doubtful about
the performance of a 486DX4 as a firewall on a cable modem, but I wanted
to at least try it. What I discovered was that a minimal FreeBSD install
was just about right! Not only was the install closer to the minimal
install that I wanted, it was a great operating system choice."

cnet: BSDi Unix
buy reshapes open source
"Wind River likes the
BSDi software as much for its open-source nature as the fact that it
doesn't have to stay open source. When selling its operating systems for
use in nontraditional embedded devices such as set-top boxes, handheld
computers or network routers, the company needs to be able to make changes
that aren't released to the public."

River buys open source company
"We intend that
Free BSD thrive under our stewardship."

River buys two operating systems, including FreeBSD Unix
"Wind River will continue to maintain BSD UNIX as an open-source
operating system, in which users may, but are not required, to share
changes and improvements to the way the operating system functions, said
Jerry Fiddler, chairman."
