<!-- Simple schema for FreeBSD Project news.

    Divide time in to <year>, <month>, and <day> elements, each of
    which has a <name>.

    each <day> element contains one or more <event> elements.

    Each <event> contains an optional <title>, and then a <p>.
    <p> elements can contain <a> anchors.

    Use the <title> element if the <p> content is lengthy.  When
    generating synopses of this information (e.g., for syndication
    using RDF files), the contents of <title> will be preferred over
    <p>.

	  <title>FreeBSD Project to participate in Google Summer of
	    Code 2018</title>

	  <p>The FreeBSD Project is pleased to announce its
	    participation in Google's 2018 Summer of Code program,
	    which funds summer students to participate in open source
	    projects.  This will be the FreeBSD Project's fourteenth year
	    in the program, having mentored over 210 successful
	    students through summer-long coding projects between 2005
	    and 2017.</p>

	  <p>Past successful projects have included improvements to
	    Linux ABI emulation, NFSv4 ACLs, TCP regression testing,
	    FUSE file system support, and countless other projects.
	    Many students go on to become FreeBSD developers, as well
	    as participating in FreeBSD developer events around the
	    world through continuing support from the FreeBSD
	    Foundation.</p>

	  <p>Prospective participants are invited to apply; more
	    information is available, including proposal and deadline
	    information, on the <a
	      href="&enbase;/projects/summerofcode.html">FreeBSD
	      Summer Projects page</a>.</p>

           <title>About the Meltdown and Spectre attacks</title>

	   <p>About the <a href="https://meltdownattack.com/">Meltdown</a>
	   and <a href="https://spectreattack.com/">Spectre</a> attacks:
	   &os; was made aware of the problems in late December 2017.
	   We're working with CPU vendors and the published papers on
	   these attacks to mitigate them on &os;. Due to the
	   fundamental nature of the attacks, no estimate is yet
	   available for the publication date of patches.</p>

	  <title>FreeBSD Project to participate in Google Summer of
	    Code 2017</title>

	  <p>The FreeBSD Project is pleased to announce its
	    participation in Google's 2017 Summer of Code program,
	    which funds summer students to participate in open source
	    projects.  This will be the FreeBSD Project's thirteenth year
	    in the program, having mentored over 200 successful
	    students through summer-long coding projects between 2005
	    and 2016.</p>

	  <p>Past successful projects have included improvements to
	    Linux ABI emulation, NFSv4 ACLs, TCP regression testing,
	    FUSE file system support, and countless other projects.
	    Many students go on to become FreeBSD developers, as well
	    as participating in FreeBSD developer events around the
	    world through continuing support from the FreeBSD
	    Foundation.</p>

	  <p>Prospective participants are invited to apply; more
	    information is available, including proposal and deadline
	    information, on the <a
	      href="&enbase;/projects/summerofcode.html">FreeBSD
	      Summer Projects page</a>.</p>

	  <title>New &os; Core Team elected</title>

	  <p>The &os; Project is pleased to announce the completion of
	    the 2016 Core Team election.  The &os; Core Team acts as
	    the project's "board of directors" and is responsible for
	    approving new src committers, resolving disputes between
	    developers, appointing sub-committees for specific
	    purposes (security officer, release engineering, port
	    managers, webmaster, etc ...), and making any other
	    administrative or policy decisions as needed.  The Core
	    Team has been elected by &os; developers every two years
	    since 2000.</p>

	  <p>The &os; Core Team is glad to announce that
	    <a href="mailto:matthew@FreeBSD.org">Matthew
	      Seaman</a> will continue the role of
	    <a href="mailto:core-secretary@FreeBSD.org">Core Team
	      Secretary</a>.</p>

	  <p>More information about the election (together with a list
	    of the new members of the Core Team) can be found in the
	    official <a

	  <title>FreeBSD Project to participate in Google Summer of
	    Code 2016</title>

	  <p>The FreeBSD Project is pleased to announce its
	    participation in Google's 2016 Summer of Code program,
	    which funds summer students to participate in open source
	    projects.  This will be the FreeBSD Project's twelfth year
	    in the program, having mentored over 180 successful
	    students through summer-long coding projects between 2005
	    and 2015.</p>

	  <p>Past successful projects have included improvements to
	    Linux ABI emulation, NFSv4 ACLs, TCP regression testing,
	    FUSE file system support, and countless other projects.
	    Many students go on to become FreeBSD developers, as well
	    as participating in FreeBSD developer events around the
	    world through continuing support from the FreeBSD
	    Foundation.</p>

	  <p>Prospective participants are invited to apply; more
	    information is available, including proposal and deadline
	    information, on the <a
	      href="&enbase;/projects/summerofcode.html">FreeBSD

	  <title>FreeBSD Project to participate in Google Summer of
	    Code 2014</title>

	  <p>The FreeBSD Project is pleased to announce its
	    participation in Google's 2014 Summer of Code program,
	    which funds summer students to participate in open source
	    projects.  This will be the FreeBSD Project's tenth year
	    in the program, having mentored over 160 successful
	    students through summer-long coding projects between 2005
	    and 2013.</p>

	  <p>Past successful projects have included improvements to
	    Linux ABI emulation, NFSv4 ACLs, TCP regression testing,
	    FUSE file system support, and countless other projects.
	    Many students go on to become FreeBSD developers, as well
	    as participating in FreeBSD developer events around the
	    world through continuing support from the FreeBSD
	    Foundation.</p>

	  <p>Prospective participants are invited to apply; more
	    information is available, including proposal and deadline
	    information, on the <a
	      href="&enbase;/projects/summerofcode.html">FreeBSD

	  <p>&os; celebrated its <a
	      href="https://www.FreeBSD.org/news/1993/freebsd-coined.html">20th
	      birthday</a> today.   On June 19, 1993, Jordan Hubbard,
	    Rod Grimes, and David Greenman announced to the world the
	    creation of their new fork of the BSD 4.3 operating
	    system.</p>

	  <p>&os; was derived from the 386BSD 0.1 release from Bill
	    and Lynne Jolitz with its 1.0 release in Nov 1993.  Its
	    stated goals were to create a fast, stable, reliable
	    server OS for i386 systems.</p>

	  <p>Since then, it has become the backbone of countless
	    products and has grown to supporting 64bit computing,
	    embedded devices, and desktop users.</p>

	    as participating in FreeBSD developer events around the
	    world through continuing support from the FreeBSD
	    Foundation.</p>

	  <p>Prospective participants are invited to apply; more

	  <title>Ports CVS End of Life on February 28th 2013</title>

	  <p>The development of &os; ports is done in Subversion
	    nowadays.  By February 28th 2013, the &os; ports tree will
	    no longer be exported to CVS.  Therefore ports tree
	    updates via CVS, CVSup or csup(1) will no longer be
	    available after that date.  All users who use CVS, CVSup
	    or csup(1) to update the ports tree are encouraged to
	    switch to portsnap(8) or for users which need more control
	    over their ports collection checkout, use Subversion
	    directly.  More information are available in the
	    announcement mail on the <a
	      href="&lists.ports-announce;/2012-September/000026.html">&os;&nbsp;ports
	      announce mailing list</a>.</p>

	  <p>A migration guide from CVSup or csup(1) to portsnap(8) is
	    also available in <a
	      href="&url.doc.base-en;/books/handbook/ports-using.html#cvsup-migration">the

	    In Google's 2011 Summer of Code program, which funds summer
	    students to participate in open source projects.
	    This will be the FreeBSD Project's seventh year in the program,
	    having mentored over 100 successful students through summer-long
	    coding projects between 2005 and 2010.</p>

	  <p> Past successful projects have included improvements to Linux
	    ABI emulation, NFSv4 ACLs, TCP regression testing, FUSE file
	    system support, and countless other projects.
	    Many students go on to become FreeBSD developers, as well as
	    participating in FreeBSD developer events around the world
	    through continuing support from the FreeBSD Foundation.</p>

	  <p>Prospective participants are invited to apply; more information
	    is available, including proposal and deadline information, on the
	    <a href="&enbase;/projects/summerofcode.html">FreeBSD Summer
	    Projects page</a>.</p>

	  <p>The FreeBSD Project again received many high quality
	    applications from students participating
	    in <a href="http://code.google.com/soc">Google's Summer of
	    Code</a> program.  This year 18 student proposals to work
	    with the FreeBSD Project were accepted as part of this
	    program.  For those with projects that were not accepted
	    this year, we'd like to note that the FreeBSD Project is
	    always willing to help mentor students so they can learn
	    more about operating system development through our normal
	    community mailing lists and development forums.</p>

	  <p>Please read the official <a
	    href="https://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?20100526034329.GA40980">announcement</a>

	    selected for funding can be found in the FreeBSD <a
	    href="https://wiki.freebsd.org/SummerOfCode2010Projects">Summer
	    of Code wiki</a>.  Coding started on May 24, so please join
