1 George Neville-Neil and Bryan Lunduke discuss BSD and Linux
=============================================================

 I just watched [a video] where our good [George Neville-Neil]
 spends a bit over an hour trying to convince Bryan Lunduke to use
 FreeBSD instead of Linux. Well, that's at least how the video is
 pitched ; it's actually pretty different from that, and much more
 interesting.  We get a good debate on licensing and the
 shortcomings of *both* licences (BSD and GPL), some insights into
 how George actually uses FreeBSD (which, I believe, explains a
 lot about why FreeBSD is developed the way it is; but I leave
 that to a longer post I'll write Real Soon Now^TM) and some
 discussion on the importance of marketing in free software.
