I just visited their Web server and I have the feeling that people are really working on it and the packages they offer sound good and are up to date. The offer -STABLE source and -CURRENT Snaps. Things they are working on is: - IPv6 - IPsec - advanced packet queuing, ATM, mobility,.... Other good signs are the availability for all BSD variants and the interest of companies like: Fujitsu Limited Hitachi, Ltd. IIJ Research Laboratory NEC Corporation Toshiba Corporation Yokogawa Digital Computer Corporation (YDC) Yokogawa Electric Corporation That generally sounds good and if the technical things are good as well then go for it .... Other voices ?
