Awww, that's not fair. You shouldn't say "BSD type software" when
you really mean vapourware.
On the other hand, who cares? I don't. I waited 6 months for the 
release of 386BSD-0.2, and you-know-who said "real soon now".
It didn't arrive. That made me choose FreeBSD, and I haven't 
regretted it once.
I'm not sure if I'd switch even if the boogeyman himself slammed
a 386BSD-1.0 CD in my face. I kind'a like what I've got...

(Btw, I trimmed the crossposting list... ;-))
