BSD Naming

[Vergil83]

This is a small question (and rather silly ) but why is the "subtitle" for the BSD forum

For all discussions regarding Free/NetBSD and OpenBSD.

Why are Free and Net "/ together" while Open is by itself. According to wikipedia, Free and Net were the two original from 1993 and Open was a split from Net.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenBSD

It would seem more "normal" to have it as

For all discussions regarding Free, Net, and OpenBSD.

or add BSD to the end of every one.

Don't forget all of our new BSD sprogs, PCBSD, DesktopBSD and FreesBIE. We're not gonna judge BSD distros!!

Or dragonfly!! Should it not just be BSD based? we are a Linux forum.

I agree that perhaps it should just be "For all BSD related discussion" rather than naming a few popular ones. I also originally disagreed with the idea of putting a BSD forum on LinuxForums.org, and still do.
