You are waving around vaporware in the faces of a group of people who have
two (2) viable free BSD solutions and one commercial BSD solution.

NetBSD, FreeBSD, and BSDI are all being used for serious work.  They are
reasonably stable for production and development.  They can be fixed up
with all the latest UNIX weenie PD toys.

386BSD 1.0 may be the operating system straight from GOD himself ( although
I thought that was Plan 9), but spamming people with hype about something
that they can't acquire is a total wast of energy, bandwidth, and the UARTS
in my system.
