<h2>The Machine</h2>

    <img src="../gifs/powerlogo.gif" alt="Powered by FreeBSD" align="right"> <p>The
      machine <tt>www.FreeBSD.org</tt> is a dual 600MHz Pentium III set
      up with 1024 megabytes of RAM and about 70 gigabytes of disk space.
      The mail processing duties for the domain are handled by
      <tt>hub.FreeBSD.org</tt>, a dual 600 MHz Pentium III with 1024
      megabytes RAM and about 16 gigabytes disk space.  Inbound mail
      is buffered via <tt>mx1.FreeBSD.org</tt>, an 800MHz Pentium III with
      512 megabytes of ram and 30 gigabytes of disk.  Outbound mail is
      relayed via <tt>mx2.FreeBSD.org</tt>, an 850MHz Pentium III
      with 512 megabytes of ram and 18 gigabytes of disk.</p>

      <p>
      Naturally, these systems all run FreeBSD.  The hardware and network
      connection have been generously provided by <a
      href="http://www.bsdi.com/">BSDi</a>, <a
      href="http://www.yahoo.com/">Yahoo!</a>, and other <a
      href="../donations/donors.html">contributors</a> to the FreeBSD project.
      </p>

      <p>A complete list of all host names in the FreeBSD.org domain
      is available at the <a href="machines.html">The FreeBSD.org Network</a>
      page.
      </p>

<h2>The Software</h2>

    <img src="../gifs/apachepower.gif" alt="Powered by Apache" align="right"><p>
      These pages are served up by the versatile and efficient <a
      href="http://www.apache.org/">Apache http server</a>.  In
      addition, there are a few locally crafted CGI scripts.
      Indexing of these pages and the mailing list archive are
      provided by freewais-sf, a derivative of the CNIDR freewais.</p>

      <p>The
      <a href="http://www.analog.cx/">Analog</a>
      web statistics package is used to provide <a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/statistic/www.html">
      these statistics</a> on web server usage.</p>

<h2>The Pages</h2>

    <img src="../gifs/lynx.gif" alt="Lynx Friendly logo" align="right">

    <p>The original web pages were put together by John Fieber
      <a
	href="http://people.FreeBSD.org/~jfieber/">&lt;jfieber@FreeBSD.org&gt;
	</a> with input from the FreeBSD community and <b>you</b>.
	<a
        href="http://wolfram.schneider.org">&lt;wosch@FreeBSD.org&gt;</a>
        was our first webmaster but this responsibility is now shared
        by a larger team of web and documentation contributors.
	The FreeBSD pages are valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional and should
        degrade gracefully on any browser.</p>

<h2>Page Design</h2>

    <p>The current website design was done by <a
      href="http://www.emilyboyd.com">Emily Boyd</a> as part of the
      <a href="http://code.google.com/soc">Google Summer of Code</a>
      program in 2005.</p>

    <p>The original page design (still visible at <a
      href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/old">http://www.FreeBSD.org/old</a>)
      was done by <A HREF="http://www.asis.com/~meganm/">Megan
