<title>Funded Student Projects Announced</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>The FreeBSD Project received over 120 applications for <a
|
|
href="http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html">Google's
|
|
Summer of Code</a> program, amongst which 14 were selected
|
|
for funding. Unfortunately, there were far more first rate
|
|
applications than available spots for students. However,
|
|
we encourage students to work together with us all year
|
|
round. The FreeBSD Project is always willing to help
|
|
mentor students learn more about operating system
|
|
development through our normal community mailing lists and
|
|
development forums. Contributing to an open source
|
|
software project is a valuable component of a computer
|
|
science education and great preparation for a career in
|
|
software development.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>A complete list of the winning students and projects is
|
|
available <a
|
|
href="http://www.freebsd.org/projects/summerofcode.html">here</a>. A <a
|
|

<title>New website section: Projects and ideas for volunteers</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>The FreeBSD project has hundreds of active developers spread all
|
|
over the world, and many of them have their own parts of the
|
|
source-tree that they work on. However, there are always a lot of
|
|
new interesting projects and ideas that needs to be investigated
|
|
and evaluated, and this is where the FreeBSD project relies on
|
|
heroic efforts from volunteers. A new section on the FreeBSD
|
|
website has been created with the purpose of listing such
|
|
projects. The list is in no way complete, but it should serve as
|
|
a nice starting point for volunteers who would like to become
|
|
committers in the future. You can <a
|

<title>New article: Building Products with FreeBSD</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>A new article, <a
|
|
href="&base;/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/building-products/">
|
|
Building Products with FreeBSD</a> describes the benefits of
|
|
collaborating with the FreeBSD project when developing
|
|
products. Much of the engineering cost of software product
|
|
development for a successful product comes from the need to
|
|
evolve to keep pace with the market. By working with a mature,
|
|
reuse-friendly source base like that of the FreeBSD
|
|
project, and by following the best-practices listed in this article,
|
|
organizations can reap the benefits of reduced engineering costs
|
|
and improved market adaptability.</p>

<title>New Article: Choosing a FreeBSD Version</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>A new article, <a
|
|
href="&base;/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/version-guide/">
|
|
Choosing the FreeBSD Version That Is Right For You</a>,
|
|
discusses considerations that should go into the selection
|
|
of the most suitable version of FreeBSD for individual needs.
|
|
Included are such concepts as the differences between a
|
|
Release and a Branch, and between FreeBSD-STABLE and
|
|
FreeBSD-CURRENT. Also covered is how FreeBSD development
|
|
is moving towards a goal of more frequent major releases,
|
|
each of which introduces smaller feature sets, as compared
|
|
to how releases were done in the past. The target audience
|
|
is both the user who is considering installing FreeBSD, and
|
|
also existing users who wish to plan their future upgrades.</p>

<title>Funded Student Projects Announced</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>The FreeBSD Project received over 350 applications for <a
|
|
href="http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html">Google's
|
|
Summer of Code</a> program, amongst which 18 were selected
|
|
for funding. Unfortunately, there were far more first rate
|
|
applications than available spots for students. However,
|
|
we encourage students to work together with us all year
|
|
round. The FreeBSD Project is always willing to help
|
|
mentor students learn more about operating system
|
|
development through our normal community mailing lists and
|
|
development forums. Contributing to an open source
|
|
software project is a valuable component of a computer
|
|
science education and great preparation for a career in
|
|
software development.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>More information about the funded student projects is
|
|
available from the <a
|
|
href="http://wikitest.freebsd.org/moin.cgi/SummerOfCode2005">FreeBSD
|

<title>Snapshot Release in July 2005 Available</title>
|

|
<p>The FreeBSD 6-CURRENT snapshot releases in July 2005 are

now available. This will likely be the last snapshot

|
of 6.0-CURRENT before the RELENG_6 branch is made.
|
|
The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team has released
|
|
snapshot releases of 5-STABLE and 6-CURRENT to encourage

people to test new features and improve the reliability.

<title>FreeBSD 5.3-RC2 released</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is proud to
|
|
announce the availability of FreeBSD 5.3-RC2. Two
|
|
critical issues came up during RC1 testing and it is
|
|
felt the fixes warrant one more RC so they receive
|
|
widespread testing. If no more show-stopper problems
|
|
are found this will be the last test release done before
|
|
5.3-RELEASE. Please see the full announcement on
|

<title>Removal of Gallery</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>Because of the hard maintenance and low benefit the
|
|
<a href="../gallery/">gallery</a>
|
|
pages bring to the Project and the listed websites,
|
|
it has been decided to spend the time working on other
|
|
stuff related to FreeBSD than these pages. The gallery
|
|
will be removed in two weeks, no further submissions will
|
|
be processed. However, this has no influence on the
|
|
<a href="../commercial/">Commercial Gallery</a>.</p>
