I was sitting here reading the histories of FreeBSD and NetBSD and trying to make sense of it all. Both split off from 386BSD in 1993. That much everyone seems to agree on. As near as I can tell, FreeBSD split in mid-1993 and NetBSD in earler 1993. But why didn't the FreeBSD group just become a 385-militant wing of the NetBSD development effort? Why was a different project needed? Thank you, J~ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
