Debian GNU/FreeBSD?


We all know that Debian is not just Linux. In that context, I was wonder whether we have anybody using Debian GNU/FreeBSD. How developed is this OS and is it being actively developed and maintained as of now?

Also how does its software repository compare to the Linux base? I'm sure it will be smaller, but I just wanted an idea of how big/small it is.

Haven't got around to it yet, but
If you can get your hands on the latest edition
of Linux Format (LXF77 March 2006) from the UK
(www.linuxformat.co.uk) especially the DVD version,
you get an article on FreeBSD, a review of NetBSD
and included in the DVD, the two above plus OpenBSD
and Dragonfly BSD.
