FreeBSD is somewhat of a closed development enviroment what some organizations do is that they maintain their own cvs repository. CVS repository is guarded by the core members and only "certified" committers are allowed to commit code that in addition to not having a procedure or a processs to mitigate technical conflicts such as new config vs new-bus makes the develpment process at least a closed one from the perspective of the FreeBSD cvs repository. > > And then what about newconfig?
