Hello everyone!
I'm new here so I don't know if this is the correct forum to post this thread to First of all, I like FreeBSD. I like the fact that it is a complete, well thought out system.
Although what I have failed to understand why you guys don't take more measures to differentiate FreeBSD from Linux. And I don't mean that internally, (I know the internals of FreeBSD are different than Linux's) I mean in terms of user applications, desktop environments, etc. FreeBSD supports all the same applications that every other OS does, the difference is that FreeBSD supports older versions of those applications.
I'm a C/C++ programmer and I'd be willing to join the FreeBSD project to work on a FreeBSD desktop environment. I however don't know how would such a project fit into the long-term goals of FreeBSD.
Comments, thoughts are welcome.
Best regards,
Klemen
