Wish it were fully BSD-based! Alas, it uses a GPLed GUI. (Yes, I
know that this doesn't matter to everyone, but it matters a lot to
me personally. I want to be able to hack on the code without
lending support to the political agenda that accompanies the GPL; I
also do not want to open myself to appropriation of my work due to
having inspected GPLed code. No flame wars, please.)
In any event, if I were to run a FreeBSD-based desktop system (as
opposed to servers and appliances, which is what I do with
FreeBSD), I'd want the GUI to be BSD-licensed or Apache-licensed.
