The FreeBSD Core Team has approved the following short, but to-the-point statement on the recent acquisition of BSDi's software assets by Wind River Systems: BSDi has played an important part in the growth and success of the FreeBSD Project. We are encouraged that Wind River has stepped up to help continue this tradition by employing a number of key FreeBSD developers, providing an important distribution channel for the FreeBSD operating system, and by providing advocacy for the FreeBSD Project and Open Source movement. In the coming months, we look forward to working with Wind River towards our common goal of furthering the success of FreeBSD.
