FreeBSD The FreeBSD 7-STABLE branch saw its first point release today. Don't let the point release moniker fool you, though, as FreeBSD 7.1 comes packed with a number of pretty significant changes, such as support for OpenSolaris' DTrace, as well as a new, more efficient scheduler.

OpenSolaris and FreeBSD share a lot of code without any problem, so its not BSD nor CDDL problem, the problem is GPL2 which is compatible only with itself.

BSD and CDDL does not forbid linking with anything while GPL2 does, now it suffers greatly from their 'protection'.
