   Well, one thing that seems really more "open" in OpenBSD is public
   readonly CVS access (as advertised, don't know if this is up for
   now). 
   I'd really like to see this for NetBSD/FreeBSD, too. As an example, it
   would make it much easier to look at John Dyson's work on the VM
   system without having to ask someone to check out all these changes.

Agreed.  This would be very handy for many reasons.
