(Brief background, I am bored.  I noticed a trend that everytime someone
mentions BSD on Slashdot, someone asks what the differences are between
the BSDs, aside from hype.  I am trying to resolve that question.)

So at this point, I am trying to figure out why NetBSD and FreeBSD didn't
pool resource early.  I know why OpenBSD exists so that is not a question
(though great quotes are appreciated:).

Why did Jolitz pull support from 386BSD?  And what was BSDi doing at the
time?
