MidnightBSD 0.4 发布，FreeBSD派生出的操作系统

MidnightBSD是从FreeBSD派生出的操作系统。该项目的一个关键性目标是创建一份易于使用的桌面环境，并使用图形化的ports管理，以及 采用GNUstep的系统配置。该操作系统的主体将沿用BSD许可证。MidnightBSD是FreeBSD 6.1 beta的分支。

Lucas Holt has announced the release of MidnightBSD 0.4, a FreeBSD-derived operating system with a goal to create an easy-to-use desktop environment with graphical ports management:

" MidnightBSD 0.4 has been released. It includes many new features, but of particular interest is the new package management tool, mport. This release is a bit different from previous releases in that we plan to update packages during the support period for 0.4. Rather than upload packages and sit on them for the life of the release, you will be able to download updated packages for i386 and amd64 periodically. Due to this new feature, our initial package offering is smaller than we've done for previous releases as many things had to get migrated and updated. We plan to expand the packages available in the coming weeks. In addition to mport, we've imported a large number of features from FreeBSD 9.1."
