I've known a lot of the BSDi folks since before there was a FreeBSD. One of them, who is not with the company any longer, _might_ have felt that way -- but, then, given the popularity of Linux, he quite likely would have changed his mind. One engineer at BSDi has told me he's quite happy to be working on free software again. I don't deny that I have some trepidation about it, but nobody is entering into this with any "evil intents."
