To go back to a core team, it seems obvious to me that the work of formally describing the current status would be the fundamental core function and I can't imagine anyone, not even an aspiring academic, taking that on. Something along the lines of Nemo's commentary is just too big a task today. And that is just the kernel... Incidentally, does FreeBSD have a single distribution? I know NetBSD does, but then FreeBSD and OpenBSD are forks from 386BSD through NetBSD, and they share much, but have distinct identities. I tend to think of 9front and 9legacy along similar lines. I dream of "one Plan 9", but it is an immense and probably pointless exerci= se.
