Yes, but that is because the goals have changed. When Dragonfly BSD was forked, the promise was that he had a better way to do SMP than the FreeBSD model, and he would quickly prove his ideas with code.

That never happened, and it is reasonable to underline this fact since many people developed the (perhaps reasonable) belief that after 4 years Dragonfly BSD *must* have made some progress on their initial project goals.
