Another member of the BSD – family, FreeBSD, was just released in a new version 7.1. Most noticeable is that this release now features dtrace, ported from OpenSolaris. Release notes are here. Interestingly enough FreeBSD already had ZFS as a filesystem onboard and has limited support for Sparc and Sun4v (Coolthreads) systems. Together with Apple's Mac OSX we have now broader support for fundamental tecnologies developped in OpenSolaris.
