MidnightBSD 0.1 is now available. It includes several software packages such as ksh, sudo, OpenNTPD, gcc 3.4.4, BIND 9.3.4 (plus patch), and others in the base system. "MidnightBSD is a desktop operating system for x86 compatible, and soon amd64 compatible architectures. It was originally based on FreeBSD 6.1 Beta. The goal of the project is to create a BSD with ease of use and simplicity in mind."

This is not a BSD distro. While we startede with FreeBSD code, we are in the process of diverging from it. Unlike linux distros which essentially use the same kernel as every other distro, we are in the process of creating our own kernel and changing the userland to fit our needs. This is a fork, not a distro.
