Ouch. That implies that some don't consider stability, or portability, or
security as important. That is not true. (I am a NetBSD and DragonFly
committer and a member of the official FreeBSD marketing team and on the
BSD Certification Group board.) None of them would make security or
stability a non priority. And all work at portability too (but DragonFly
at this time doesn't have the resources to work on hardware porting as
much as the others).
