I found a guy who is using OpenBSD, and uses all the stuff I want to use under Linux on it… he even riced it
Now I can really join, I’ll throw it on one of my Thinkpads… or the server…

I’ve got BSD on my home router, but that would be cheating. I’ll try installing something on my G5 maybe.

Soon™, since it should be pretty much the same under BSD as it is under Linux (I can learn 2 things at once!!!)
Gimme a week, pretty busy now

macOS back in the tiger days was one of only a few platforms to have official UNIX certification.
I wish there was no GNU stuff in it.

You could run Alpine compiled with musl instead of GCC.

Yeah I know of Alpine, but it’s not just glibc. Can you compile everything with clang not GCC there? Like the whole distro and packages?
yeah.

I just nuked my partitions a week ago and haven’t got around of reinstalling Linux yet. Might as well take up the challenge and try BSD. 
If we have badges for this should be also have a list of those who are participating? I wasn’t around when the Linux challenge was on so I don’t know how that went. Maybe have a list that has: name of the participant, name of the selected BSD os, and what participant if focusing on (server stuff, daily driver for desktop, etc.)
Should the participants have a blog thread for their contribution to the challenge?
