I've blogged about this: http://pthree.org/?p=1191. Dropping the kFreeBSD port would be a sad day for me. I want that port for 3 reasons: 1. ZFS 2. pf 3. stability With regards to an init(8) system, it would seem to make the most sense to run a BSD init(8) with a BSD kernel, but I understand the previous arguments that have been made here as well. Just my thoughts from a Debian GNU/kFreeBSD admin. -- . o . o . o . . o o . . . o . . . o . o o o . o . o o . . o o o o . o . . o o o o . o o o
