FreeBSD 6.0 to target wireless devices (News.com) Posted Aug 23, 2005 12:48 UTC (Tue) by bohra (guest, #31342) [Link] Well not quite, the OpenBSD people consider the wireless drivers included in FreeBSD "not free" as only the APIs are open and not the entire source code.And their activism has had no effect (at least till now)
