Hello,

30 years ago today on March 21st, 1993 at around
09:45:37 UTC, NetBSD was born!

I believe this makes NetBSD the oldest,
still-maintained and actively developed, free and open
source descendant of the Berkeley Software
Distribution (BSD), a true genetic Unix (albeit not
small-caps UNIX nor UNIX(tm)).


Does anybody know what Chris Demetriou is doing these days? It appears like he is not that much active in the open source community anymore. Basically it was him, Theo and Charles Hannum that started NetBSD.

It was a great era. The community at large was definitely much more enthusiastic and idealistic and computers were much more fun to play with -- talking about early 386 PCs and Amigas.

NetBSD, FreeBSD and Linux -- all three great projects that still impact modern computing environments!
