<p><bf/NOTE/ This section is still very sparse, though we're hoping, of
|
|
course, that companies will add to it! :) The FreeBSD group has no
|
|
financial interest in any of the companies listed here but simply
|
|
lists them as a public service (and feels that commercial interest
|
|
in FreeBSD can have very positive effects on FreeBSD's long-term
|
|
viability). We encourage commercial software vendors to send their
|
|
entries here for inclusion. See
|
|
<url url="../commercial/commercial.html" name="the Vendors page">
|
|
for a longer list.
