Comment Freebsd for dummies (newbies?) (Score 1) 158
I think this is a great idea, not only will it further introduce fbsd and make it more accessible to those who want to try it out but are just daunted by the 'bsd' portion of Freebsd.
Secondly I'm not sure how adequate the current state of documentation on fbsd is on the net. Even though it exists, its somewhat lackluster and decentralized. Given freebsd.org has that great online handbook, there is still no where the amount of documentation that there could be. Look at all the linux documentation projects, pretty impressive.
This really seems like a good step in the right direction. I have a friend who is an avid linux user and has been wanting to checkout fbsd, but has been somewhat apprehensive because he couldn't find any beginner level material to start with. I guess I'll forward this to him.
