Sorry, but after reading this page I merely had to name the poor guy a
sucker, because FreeBSD, NetBSD & OpenBSD have been advancing the BSD
banner for quite some time now, and Mr. I-Am-BSD-Incarnate is going to use
4.3-RENO to start a new BSD? *sigh* Talk about reinventing the wheel, which
also applied to his resurection of SCCS.

He'd be better off helping Open or Net to expand more of their platform
support or FreeBSD...
