I'm not all that familiar with Solaris/SunOS and FreeBSD (aside from being
a student user on a SunOS box a long time back).

Given that FreeBSD is, well, the free version of the Berkeley Standard
Distribution, do they differ in significant ways, and how did Berkeley lose
their 'standard setting ability' along the way?

Just curious..
