FreeBSD's Security officer Colin Percival seeks sponsorship. This has happened before with other FreeBSD contributors. "I'm hoping to raise $15000 Canadian (about US$13000) to pay me to work full-time on FreeBSD for 16 weeks over the summer. This will allow me to devote more time to my role as FreeBSD Security Officer, perform a complete overhaul of FreeBSD Update, and make some significant improvements to Portsnap."

I'm the one that said it, but I was refering to the earlier argument that took place in the OpenBSD seeks funding discussion. The GPL zealots came out of the woodwork and proclaimed that BSD was set up for failure and GPL projects had plenty of funding. Personally, I'm a user of BSD (FreeBSD in particular). It's funny though that when BSD's are brought up, others are quick to bring in the license argument.
