DragonFly BSD 1.4 is the third major release of Matthew Dillon's fork of the FreeBSD operating system, and significant progress has been made towards reaching many of the project's numerous goals. New in this release include a more up to date version of the GNU Compiler Collection (required due to the incread use of thread local storage in DragonFly), an import of NetBSD's Citrus code (Comprehensive I18N Framework Towards Respectable Unix Systems), major reworking of all core subsystems in preparation for removing the MP lock, rewrites of various VFS related code and many updated drivers, frameworks and contributed programs.

The review was useful for me. I was wondering about most things that the article informed me about. I even liked the style of writing. I agree I would also like a more indepth technical comparission... but that shouldn't mean you should stop writing. Please keep doing it and I think you're dealing exceptionally well with those sometimes pretty harsh comments.
Best regards,
