End-of-Year Fund Raising Drive

Dear FreeBSD Community,

The FreeBSD Foundation is kicking off our End-of-Year Fund Raising
Drive! Our goal this year is to raise over $250,000. And while we’re
very excited to report that we’ve already raised over $218,000 this
year, we still have a little ways to go.  That’s where you come in…

Why do we need donations?

The goal of the FreeBSD Project is to provide software that may be used
for any purpose -- and without strings attached.  Our mission is to
support the FreeBSD Project and community. Our funding comes from people
like you – those who are determined to keep FreeBSD free!

Where does the money go?

•	Sponsoring FreeBSD related conferences.

•	Providing travel grants to developers to attend these conferences.

•	Providing legal support on issues like understanding the GPLv3 impact 
on FreeBSD, trademarks, and other legal issues that come up.

•	Providing grants for projects that improve FreeBSD.

Your financial support is critical for the FreeBSD Project.
Please help us keep FreeBSD free. Go to
http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/donate/ to donate (any amount will
help).  And thank you for your continued support of the FreeBSD Foundation.

BSDCan 2008 - call for papers

Hello folks,

BSDCan 2008 will be held 16-17 May, 2008 in Ottawa at the University of
Ottawa. It will be preceded by two days of tutorials on 14-15 May 2008.

We are now accepting proposals for papers.

The papers should be written with a very strong technical content
bias. Papers and proposals of a business development or marketing
nature are not appropriate for this venue.

If you are doing something interesting with a BSD operating system,
please submit a proposal.  You might be developing a very complex
system using BSD as the foundation.  Perhaps you are helping others
and have a story to tell about how BSD played a role. People using
BSD as a platform for research are also encouraged to submit a
proposal. Perhaps you may want to write a paper such as:

   * How we manage a giant installation with respect to handling spam.
   * and/or sysadmin.
   * and/or networking.

Both users and developers are encouraged to share their experiences.

The schedule is:

  19 Dec 2007 Proposal acceptance begins
  19 Jan 2008 Proposal acceptance ends
  19 Feb 2008 Confirmation of accepted proposals
  19 Apr 2008 Formatted final papers must arrive no later than this date
