One of my popular articles shortly after I joined OSNews in 2001 proved to be "the big *BSD interview" and so it is only appropriate to end my serving at OSNews with a similar theme. Today we are very happy to host a Q&A with well-known FreeBSD developers John Baldwin, Robert Watson and Scott Long. We discuss about FreeBSD 6 and its new features, the competition, TrustedBSD, Darwin etc.

It's very nice to see the FreeBSD people are excited about Xen. The guy who ported FreeBSD to run on Xen has, I understand, recently got commit access on the FreeBSD CVS tree, so hopefully we'll see an official merge soon. NetBSD has always had excellent Xen support also.
Interestingly, I noticed there was a Google Summer of Code project to make the FreeBSD installer work nicely in a Xen guest.
