Uhm I think we both may have misunderstood. Perhaps 'this state' just
means 'as technology preview'. I.e. normal QA requirements are no longer
waived because of preview status.
If that is the case, I think the kFreeBSD port is perfectly capable of
meeting these requirements. The system is quite robust already, in fact
I've used it in production environments several times (including
infrastructure for a major corporation which will remain unnamed), with
very satisfactory results.
