Hi there,

Well, it better. It will have cost me a decent amount of (billable)
time, and money, by the time I'm done with it. Turns out domains,
logo, webdesign, etcetc. aren't free. Bummer! :)

Release is 31.07., I'm doing a release party here in Tallinn. If
anyone happens to be in the neighborhood... you will find a way to
contact me, I'm sure.

> Johannes hopes to make this a way to popularize FreeBSD more.

Given that I run FreeBSD on my laptop, servers, soon a Raspberry Pi 2
or three, get paid for working with it etcetc, starting on FreeBSD is
the low-hanging fruit.

In one of the future iterations I'll hack up CentOS support. That
should be trivial; after all, I did the CentOS ports for our Linux
emulation... ;-)

I'll publish the code once we (speaking as ruby@ team member) have
brought in GitLab, and as soon as
`fractal cells || hosting singularity'
can fully self-deploy.

That is, the after the release party -- August 01, 2015.

Fun fact: It's the Swiss federal holiday.. ;-)

Best,
