Wonderful BSD news

Netbase shall bring netBSD userland utilities to Linux

Version v0.1 is released by introducing a new endeavor to port netBSD userland utilities to Linux with minimal source changes

Quote

The first release already includes a substantial set of core utilities including

cat echo ln mv pwd rm rmdir sleep chmod sync date mkdir test chown basename env dirname id tee yes head printf wc false true whoami uniq nice tty grep domainname hostname

The powerful ksh is also in the release

The potential benefits are practical

Developers working across BSD and Linux may prefer consistent tool behavior in both environments Security researchers and systems engineers may want to test or standardize on BSD utilities without switching operating systems.

It may also appeal to users who prefer BSD-style implementations over GNU ones for philosophical or technical reasons.
