Hi list,

I just set Kevin up with CVS access. He's going to be joining the
Hardened Gentoo project, in order to help (mainly) with the hardened
userland.

He's originally from Britain, but he now lives in Italy. He graduated
from Manchester University in 1990 with a BSc in Computer Science and
Mathematics. He's presently working full-time.

Kevin has been a long-time contributor to the hardened project, and has
been instrumental in providing several key patches for hardened
toolchains/userland/headers/multimedia. He has a low level understanding
of various assembly languages, as well as C, Ada and sh.

Please welcome Kevin to the team.

Regards,
Tom

Hi Kevin! If you want to try new, exciting adventures in hardening... you can 
always join the bsd herd and try to add hardened support on 
Gentoo/FreeBSD... :)

Good.. now... you'll be joining english or italian takeover conspiration? 
Because that's going to be a critical point...
Ehi! Wait! I wasn't supposed to talk about it in public...

What about Gentoo/NetBSD ?

No such thing at this time.

I often no very often use NetBSD, so I would be interested to see 
Gentoo/(free)BSD in form of NetBSD, ..
But then again it would be quite useless and "doing" things twice , 
although there's a large difference between Net and FreeBSD.
But I really prefer NetBSD over FreeBSD it's just so much faster.
Would it be possible to create Gentoo/BSD, note I'm writting BSD instead 
of freeBSD, in froms of Net and FreeBSD ?

A lot of what we've been doing with FreeBSD is pretty generic --
starting a NetBSD port 'should' just be a case of writing new ebuilds
for the NetBSD base system and creating a new profile. Of course, there
will most likely be the inevitable complications, but anyone's more
then welcome to try it.

Add to this adding support for NetBSD's ldconfig.. if it's similar to 
OpenBSD's one, it's completely different from the one we have on FreeBSD.
