Surely there must be a reason why people aren't writing/submitting BSD 
articles though? Perhaps they don't think BSD articles are wanted (a 
catch-22 situation I guess in which no one sees any articles for BSD so 
they think that such works aren't wanted so they don't bother submitting 
any...), but that is a hurdle that could easily be passed once a couple 
of articles had been accepted by one of the main Linux magazines.
