Feel free to go into details; I'm familiar with all of
the BSD's, being the author of the 386BSD 0.1 patchkit,
which was the genesis of NetBSD (accidental) and FreeBSD
(on purpose).  I've also been a BSDI user since it was
first released.

I think the issues have less to do with the OS than they
do with the planned application, but I'm willing to hear
out an opposing view.
