Near 2 years old. Most readers of PD src OSs know a .0 release is
adventurous (though page author didnt mention that). Most readers long
since would know to search for newer FreeBSDs,
probably see 9.0 was dropped 2013-03-31, 8.5 month back.

- If something is not a page claiming to be a maintained current
comparison, but merely a Blog (= b[.+]log ?) Log of experiences at Date,
(as that page does) I see no obligation to waste time updating it.
- Don't Demand a fix, Offer author a friendly short update ready
to drop in, with href= to wherever your research with
http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html shows fixes were made.
- Target MS for strife, not a BSD or a Linux.
