<ul></ul><p>:Here's the vkernel article I did back in February. Some of you may have <br />:already read it on lwn.net (<a class="external" href="http://lwn.net/Articles/228404/">http://lwn.net/Articles/228404/</a> and <br />:http://lwn.net/Articles/230658/). Now that the subscriber-only period is <br />:ended, I can finally submit it for inclusion in the project docs, along with <br />:the two appendices that didn't make it in the lwn.net articles.<br />:<br />:Let me also thank Matthew Dillon for reviewing the text, suggesting <br />:improvements and being patient with my sometimes confused questions on <br />:kernel@ and commits@ and Simon Schubert for going over the FPU subsection. <br />:All mistakes are of course my own.<br />:<br />:Aggelos</p>
<pre><code>I really liked the article. Poor LWN, though, I don't think their<br /> reader base is sophisticated enough for the article if all they can<br /> do is complain about it not being Linux. I'd like to see it in some<br /> of the BSD rags.</code></pre>

<p>Me too, if only to see the inevitable "This was also on lwn.net. Eeew. This <br />site is now tainted for ever as far as I'm concerned" comments :)</p>
<p>More seriously, the people who post comments are hardly representative of the <br />reader base and that goes for lwn.net as much as for the BSD news sites. I <br />think the extra exposure to developers was worth the delay in getting the <br />article published and the few "what's a bsd article doing here" comments.</p>
<p>That said, I'd be more than happy to send it to e.g. daemonnews if I could <br />find a way to contact them in their pages (can someone with sharper eyes help <br />here?). Alternatively, if/when it finds its way in the docs or in the wiki, I <br />can submit the url to, say, bsdnews. If anybody has a better suggestion, I'm <br />all ears.</p>

<p>BSDNews and daemonnews is the same thing, I think.</p>
<p>I intend to put it into the articles preserved on the <a class="external" href="http://www.dragonflybsd.org">www.dragonflybsd.org</a><br />site, when I get a chance. (don't let that stop anyone else from beating<br />me to it.)</p> DragonFlyBSD - Bug #616: vkernel articlehttps://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/616?journal_id=26012007-04-28T06:18:01Ztrevorjkendall
<ul></ul><p>I was thinking earlier this week (and I don't have patches for this by<br />the way), why not make a seperate "press" section and put in all the<br />articles that deal with DragonFly?</p> DragonFlyBSD - Bug #616: vkernel articlehttps://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/616?journal_id=26022007-04-28T09:39:01Zjustin
<ul></ul><p>We don't really have enough press articles to count - I'd call this<br />article more research than anything.</p> DragonFlyBSD - Bug #616: vkernel articlehttps://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/616?journal_id=27252007-05-20T20:21:03Zvictor
<ul></ul><p>I'm thinking on adding a link to the Guides section of our webpage.</p>
<p>Do you think that would be OK or better left it on the wiki?</p> DragonFlyBSD - Bug #616: vkernel articlehttps://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/616?journal_id=27272007-05-20T22:49:18Zjustin
<ul></ul><p>Put it right on the website, with a link to the publication address. We<br />have permission from the author, and that way we don't have to worry about<br />the original link going stale.</p> DragonFlyBSD - Bug #616: vkernel articlehttps://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/616?journal_id=27312007-05-21T21:46:04Zjustin
