DragonFlyBSD 1.12 has been released. "This release is primarily a maintainance update. A lot of work has been done all over the kernel and userland. There are no new big-ticket items though we have pushed the MP lock further into the kernel. The 2.0 release is scheduled for mid-year. Of the current big-ticket item work, the new HAMMER filesystem is almost to the alpha stage of development and is expected to be production ready by the mid-year 2.0 release."

Common, DragonFlyBSD's direction depends on Dillon's mood. At first it started as gentle continuation of FreeBSD 4.x. Then later all of a sudden he said: "F**k gentle FreeBSD 4.x continuation! I'm gonna re-engineer it AmigaOS style!"
And even later: "I have an idea for a file system. It has nothing to do with my AmigaOS-inspired re-engineering, but whatever."
I'm not bashing DragonFlyBSD. It's a nice research OS.
