I've been contemplating using FreeNAS, but I'm always confused by the product release information. It's written for those who already use the product, rather than those who are considering it.
To me, the ideal announcement would read something like this:
- This product is based on FreeBSD 10.3
- This product adds the following features (e.g. GUI system admin) ...
- This product improves the following standard FreeBSD ports ...
- This product is available on the FreeNAS Mini NAS appliance ...
etc
Otherwise, it's hard to know if I should try FreeNAS or just try plain vanilla FreeBSD for a file server I want to build.
- mastax 11y agoAren't product release announcements usually just a changelog with some self-congratulatory boilerplate on top? Thats what I expect at least.
