I like FreeBSD, have been using it for 5 years now and can personally say
that other then hardware problems on my part, its been a very smooth 5
years (I play with 3.0-CURRENT on production machines, so 'smooth' is
relative *grin*)...

My concern, at this point, is whether this "migration of strong
developers" is a growing trend and whether "core" has any comment on the
concerns raised by those that seem to indicate its "core ppl" that are
causing the exodus.

As at least one of those ppl has stated that, in his case, the above is
the rason, and has indicated that it is at least part of the reason why
John left (whether a strong part or not is unknown), "core" stating that
this isn't the case would tend to lead one to believe that core doesn't
feel that it is there fault and is therefore not doing anything to change
it.  

IMHO, I'd much rather core say "ya, we know there is a problem and are
working at fixing it", then stating "no problems" ...
