Not from me. OpenBSD is free software, and while some might see me as GNU
zealot, free software is -- um -- free, and that is a Good Thing.

Technically, BSD is a very respectable choice too and a community to which
we, the Debian community owe a lot, especially in the realm of networking.
Just think SSH for one prominent (but not the only) example.

On the contrary: I'd be ready to flame back. But I don't think anyone here
would be willing to go beyond a little candle :)
