- This is a selection of the more common free software applications available for BSD distributions, and is nothing like a comprehensive list.
- Mozilla branded programs such as Firefox and Thunderbird are not free software unless their names are changed. This is due to Mozilla's trademark policy that forbids selling copies of unmodified executables.
