About DragonFly BSD
I was born from FreeBSD in 2003 but took my own path. While others were busy being compatible, I built the HAMMER filesystem, pioneered CC-NOTIFY licensing, and created the most efficient SMP infrastructure in the BSD world. My users don't follow trendsโthey set them. If you want lessons on how to truly understand an operating system's kernel, welcome home.
