Anyone want to port FreeBSD to the Linux kernel? This is what I'm thinking.=
..

It would have everything that FreeBSD has:

*cvsup (same development style), buildworld, etc.
*Ports and packages.
*FreeBSD tool chain... user / system land tools etc.
*UFS2 etc.
*Same goals, methods, philosophies, and values.
*Everything but the kernel.

Plus everything that the Linux kernel has:

*Billion dollar bank roll
*Millions of developers
*Driver support
*Software support (Oracle, DB2, and other Linux only apps)

I think this combo would be the best of both worlds, the only thing I
don't like is that darn GPL stuff.
