<p>FreeBSD is one of the most popular BSD distributions. It is
|

used on desktop, servers and embedded devices for more than
|
||
two decades. We talked to Deb Goodkin, executive director,
|

FreeBSD Foundation and discussed the past, present and

<p>When discussing alternative operating systems to
|
||
Microsoft’s Windows or Apple’s macOS, Linux often comes to
|
||
mind. However, while Linux is a recreation of UNIX, FreeBSD
|
||
is more of a continuation. The free and open source
|
||
operating system was initially developed by students at the
|
||
University of California at Berkeley which is why the BSD in
|
||
its name stands for Berkeley Software Distribution.</p>

|

<p>When talking about operating systems or platforms to run
|
||
the whole computing processes for various devices, you might
|
||
have heard about FreeBSD quite often. However, today’s
|
||
implementations of this operating system are apparently not
|
||
too well-known, and many people don’t know the contributions
|
||
of FreeBSD in today’s computing technology. Since this
|
||
operating system is not generally available for the average
|
||
users, FreeBSD remains to be something that many people
|
||
nowadays are not well-acquainted with. Yet, it has been
|
||
used in various hardware and online platforms today, and it
|
||
has been actively used for more than 26 years now.</p>

<p>The FreeBSD operating system is continuing to make
|
||
progress, 26 years after it got its name. Among the areas
|
||
where work is being done is on improved support for RISC-V,
|
||
FUSE filesystem updates, C runtime changes, and security
|
||
improvements. FreeBSD Day is celebrated on June 19, in
|
||
recognition of the date in 1993 when the name FreeBSD was
|
||
coined for a fork of the 386BSD project. The first official
|
||
release of FreeBSD did not occur until November 1, 1993,
|
||
however.</p>

<p>The FreeBSD Foundation, supporters of FreeBSD, one of the
|
||
oldest and largest open source computer operating systems in
|
||
the world and used by many top corporations, has announced
|
||
that June 19, 2019 is FreeBSD Day. FreeBSD Day marks the
|
||
date in 1993 that developers named the new open source
|
||
operating system and celebrates the impact FreeBSD has had
|
||
on open source computing.</p>

<p>Overall, the FreeBSD ZFS On Linux port is looking good so far and we
|
||
are looking forward to it hopefully maturing in time for FreeBSD
|
||
13.0. Nice job to iX Systems and all of those involved, especially the
|
||
ZFS On Linux project. Those wanting to help in testing can try the
|
||
FreeBSD ZoL spins. Stay tuned for more benchmarks and on more diverse
|
||
hardware as time allows and the FreeBSD ZoL support further matures,
|
||
but so far at least the performance numbers are in good shape.</p>

<p>With over 400 volunteer devs at its helm, the FreeBSD
|
||
Project is a dynamic force that puts the control in
|
||
administrators' hands. Project Committer Allan Jude has
|
||
been a fan of the project since 2002. He discusses the
|
||
system's internal structure and the feature functionality
|

that drew him in — contributing to its documentation
|

and then to its development — and what he's working
|

on now, more than a decade later.</p>

|
||
<p>As indicated by the Q1-2012 FreeBSD Status Report, LLVM's
|
||
Clang compiler is quickly replacing GCC for this popular BSD
|
||
operating system. The developers are also making much
|
||
progress in a GNU-free C++11 stack. For FreeBSD 10 they're
|
||
aiming for Clang as the default C/C++ compiler, deprecate
|
||
GCC, and to have a BSD-licensed C++ stack.</p>
