Bio/Description

The BSD software developed at CSRG helped spawn the Open Source movement and facilitated the explosion of the internet. The success of the BSD programming environment led to a number of Unix-like systems which replaced the portions of the BSD code that were subject to AT&T copyright. The Linux system is perhaps the most well-known of these and about half of the utilities that it originally came packaged with were drawn from the BSD distribution.
