MidnightBSD 0.4 發布，FreeBSD派生出的操作系統

MidnightBSD是從FreeBSD派生出的操作系統。該項目的一個關鍵性目標是創建一份易于使用的桌面環境，并使用圖形化的ports管理，以及 采用GNUstep的系統配置。該操作系統的主體將沿用BSD許可證。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."
