    <description>Created by three guys who love BSD, we cover the latest news and have an extensive series of tutorials, as well as interviews with various people from all areas of the BSD community. It also serves as a platform for support and questions. We love and advocate FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, DragonFlyBSD and TrueOS. Our show aims to be helpful and informative for new users that want to learn about them, but still be entertaining for the people who are already pros.
The show airs on Wednesdays at 2:00PM (US Eastern time) and the edited version is usually up the following day.

  <description>&lt;p&gt;We're back from EuroBSDCon! This week we'll be talking with Steve Wills about mentoring new BSD developers. If you've ever considered becoming a developer or helping out, it's actually really easy to get involved. We've also got all the BSD news for the week and answers to your emails, on BSD Now - the place to B.. SD.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;This episode was brought to you by&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;hr&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Headlines&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-advocacy/2014/09/26/msg000669.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;NetBSD at Hiroshima Open Source Conference&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;NetBSD developers are hard at work, putting NetBSD on everything they can find&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;At a technology conference in Hiroshima, some developers brought their exotic machines to put on display&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;As usual, there are lots of pictures and a nice report from the conference
***&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports?limit_changes=0&amp;amp;view=revision&amp;amp;revision=368845" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;FreeBSD's Linux emulation overhaul&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;For a long time, FreeBSD's emulation layer has been based on an ancient Fedora 10 system&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If you've ever needed to install Adobe Flash on BSD, you'll be stuck with all this extra junk&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;With some recent work, that's been replaced with a recent CentOS release&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This opens up the door for newer versions of Skype to run on FreeBSD, and maybe even Steam someday
***&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="https://blog.pfsense.org/?p=1449" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;pfSense 2.2-BETA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Big changes are coming in pfSense land, with their upcoming 2.2 release&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We &lt;a href="http://www.bsdnow.tv/episodes/2014_02_19-a_sixth_pfsense" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;talked to the developer&lt;/a&gt; a while back about future plans, and now they're finally out there&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The 2.2 branch will be based on FreeBSD 10-STABLE (instead of 8.3) and include lots of performance fixes&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;It also includes some security updates, lots of package changes and updates and much more&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You can check the &lt;a href="https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/2.2_New_Features_and_Changes" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;full list of changes&lt;/a&gt; on their wiki
***&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cambus.net/netbsd-on-the-raspberry-pi/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;NetBSD on the Raspberry Pi&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This article shows how you can install NetBSD on the ever-so-popular Raspberry Pi&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;As of right now, you'll need to use a -CURRENT snapshot to do it&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;It also shows how to grow the filesystem to fill up an SD card, some pkgsrc basics and how to get some initial things set up&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Can anyone find something that you can't install NetBSD on?
***&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;News Roundup&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.midnightbsd.org/notes/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;MidnightBSD 0.5 released&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We don't hear a whole lot about MidnightBSD, but they've just released version 0.5&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;It's got a round of the latest FreeBSD security patches, driver updates and various small things&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Maybe one of their developers could come on the show sometime and tell us more about the project
***&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/bsdrp/files/BSD_Router_Project/1.52/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;BSD Router Project 1.52 released&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The newest update for the BSD Router Project is out&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This version is based on a snapshot of 10-STABLE that's very close to 10.1-RELEASE&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;It's mostly a bugfix release, but includes some small changes and package updates
***&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We've done tutorials on how to set up a FreeBSD or OpenBSD desktop, but maybe you're more interested in DragonFly&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;In this post from Justin Sherrill, you'll learn some of the steps to do just that&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;He pulled out an old desktop machine, gave it a try and seems to be pleased with the results&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;It includes a few Xorg tips, and there are some comments about the possibility of making a GUI DragonFly installer
***&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Another week, another pfSense firewall build post&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This time, the author is installing to a Jetway J7F2, a mini-ITX device with four LAN ports&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;He used to be a m0n0wall guy, but wanted to give the more modern pfSense a try&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Lots of great pictures of the hardware, which we always love
***&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
