NetBSD is dying
« on: October 29, 2006, 05:10:25 pm »
From one of the former founders of NetBSD...
Here you have it
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-users/2006/08/30/0016.html

abstract:
The NetBSD Project has stagnated to the point of irrelevance.  It has
gotten to the point that being associated with the project is often
more of a liability than an asset.  I will attempt to explain how this
happened, what the current state of affairs is, and what needs to be
done to attempt to fix the situation.
An adorable giant isopod!

Heh. Out of all the BSDs I've installed, NetBSD has been the only one that has failed to install successfully. I always thought of it as the shitty BSD. Yet, somewhere, I thought that FreeBSD/OpenBSD came out of NetBSD, so I thought NetBSD had something going for it...

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.
