In case others don't say it, I think you guys do a remarkable job. Think
about it people:
a freely available (cheap even on CD) 32-bit multitasking operating
system, with compilers, window systems and more stuff than you can
imagine.... So it isn't as well documented as I would like, SO
WHAT? If you need handholding to get your work done, there is always
DOS or Windows or the Mac. If you want to learn, or to develop
programs without worrying about segment registers or using fluffy
development environments that don't help get you work done, then
FreeBSD is ideal!
Keep up the good work!
