DaemonForums - New *BSD Forums
Kienja Kenobi wrote me to advertize the new
DaemonForums
website:
``The community is one of the most important aspects of *BSD. Without it, new
users are not likely to succeed. Without the support found in places such as
mailing lists and forums, new users are not even likely to make an attempt
at a new operating system. To meet the need for easily accessible,
user-friendly forums for *BSD, DaemonForums has been created.
Why DaemonForums? Up until recently, BSDForums.org has been the
authoritative resource for *BSD forum help. However, due to the inactivity
of the sole administrator of BSDForums, the forums have become impossible to
manage due to volumes of spam, outdated software, and an anti-free (as in
freedom) copyright license. The two active moderators on BSDForums have been
clearing spam at a non-stop pace for months, but they have been powerless to
put a long-term end to any spam. The moderators have now given up the
impossible battle at BSDForums, so soon it will be flooded by useless, junk
posts that outweigh the useful, BSD-oriented information. Therefore,
DaemonForums is filling the gap. (See:
http://www.bsdforums.org/forums/showthread.php?t=59607)
DaemonForums hopes to become the one-stop resource for completely
help-oriented *BSD information. The leading members of BSDForums have
migrated to DaemonForums and are now spear-heading the movement to the new
forums, which are built specifically to prevent spam and outlast any single
administrator.''
Enjoy!
