FreeBSD vs Orbis

M

Hi all,

Has anyone dug into the changes made by Sony to create the proprietary Orbis fork? Does anyone know of any information out there on this? Clearly there must be support for things like SAMU and such, but just wondering how much of the base Free BSD remained in Orbis...

thanks

Anyone actively working on it probably had to sign an NDA.

It's not open source, so your guess is as good as mine.
 
It was forked from FreeBSD 9.0. I'm not sure what, if anything, was contributed back to the project, but it's proprietary and it's likely that the permissive licenced FreeBSD kernel was used to protect that proprietary IP.
