If you are saying that FreeBSD has patches to ntp that are missing from ntp4, please submit them to UDel. Don't bother sending patches that only fix problems with ntp3; ntp3 is no longer supported. ntp-4.1.0 should be available in a few weeks. I'm waiting for some portability patches to settle

As I understand it, BitKeeper is indeed based on SCCS, and is a superset of it. The performance hit of SCCS has been solved. There are several significant commercial users of BitKeeper waiting for the first production release, and Larry McVoy seems to be a bit of a maniac when it comes to
