"After much deliberation, research and argument in #korg (along with
screaming matches between HPA and I over dinner) we are upgrading the
kernel.org machines from Fedora Core 5 to FreeBSD 7.0. This decision
does not come lightly to the Kernel.org admins, and we would like to
point out several key things that helped us form our decision:

FreeBSD 7.0 Bests Linux in SMP Performance:

FreeBSD vs. Linux vs. Windows 2000

We feel that we can better serve our mirrors, our users and the
community by making the switch, and we hope to have the transition done
very shortly.
