I am currently working for an ISP whose infrastructure is based 75% on FreeBSD 5.1. The remaining 25% are a nameserver running 4.7, a mail server and a backup server running 5.2, and a BGP router running a month-old -CURRENT. I am about to start in a new job at a company that builds a high- performance network security appliance based on FreeBSD. The version they travel around with to show off to potential customers runs on -STABLE; the development version runs on -CURRENT. I asked them what it was like to develop on -CURRENT compared to -STABLE. Their answer: "a relief". Now tell me again why you think FreeBSD 5 is a disaster, and why you think we're out of touch with our users and admins.
