My 2027 UNIX wishlist.
-NetBSD gets ZFS on root, and in the installer.
-NetBSD gets FreeBSD's jails, including VNET support.
<or>
-FreeBSD fully and finally declares a no AI policy.
As much as I like OpenBSD, neither of those things have ANY chance of making it into their source.
Also, has anyone forked a slop free tmux, yet?
