freebsd kernel developing

[siraj kutlusan]

i think you understood me wrong. i was looking for a girl for her
interests not looks.
oh and i have been using FreeBSD for 1.5 years now but i havent been
very serious with it. oh and i would like to reqest Turkish keyboard
support on FreeBSD. As I am forced to use it here. I know other people
have requested it for a while and i dont know why it isnt added
instead of having to config it all. I could config it but what about
the Turkish people that want to use FreeBSD for the first time and
just want the turkish Q keyboard working straight away.
