I run FreeBSD on my "server" at home already. However, that machine is  
rather underpowered (an 8-year-old workstation). It is already busy  
enough with email and a few other duties. I'd need the money to get a  
machine that is worthy for testing Evergreen and that's all it would  
be used for.--I'm not fond of virtual images myself.

*Anyone*, of course, is a wider audience than just Dan Scott. :)

Anyway, I was half-joking about the money. I *might* get around to  
working on FreeBSD compatibility, but if someone really wants it to  
happen, then a little inducement helps. :)
