Actually, to be specific, OS X is not a member of the BSD family. It shares a userland with FreeBSD for the most part as well as most of the FreeBSD networking stack, but in many other ways (the kernel, drivers, launchd, etc) it is as different from a BSD--or any traditional UNIX for that matter--as it is possible to be. Being POSIX compatible it is certified as a UNIX, but underneath and around that there are a lot of differences.

Why would BSD want to distance itself from OSX, which itself is BSD
