NetBSD and FreeBSD join forces
The BSD community has been running into one of the same problems Linux has lately: we just have too many different BSDs to choose from
What's more, none of them have any specific areas they focus on or anything like that (they're all basically the same)
That situation is about to improve somewhat, as FreeBSD and NetBSD have just merged codebases... say hello to FretBSD
Within a week, all mailing lists and webservers for the legacy NetBSD and FreeBSD projects will be terminated - the mailing list for the new combined project will be hosted from the United Nations datacenter on a Microsoft Exchange server
As UN monitors will be moderating the mailing lists to prevent disagreements and divisive arguments before they begin, this system is expected to be adequate for the load
With FretBSD, your toaster can now run ZFS, so you'll never need to worry about the bread becoming silently corrupted again
