I'm curious here, but why did the *kernel* diverge for each project? Like, I understand (or think I do) the philosophy of the OpenBSD project, and that is high security ... but, wouldn't the security improvements that go into the OpenBSD kernel not be applicable to NetBSD / FreeBSD? At this point, I couldn't imagine merging, but when OpenBSD first branched off, one would think it would have been fairly easy to keep the *kernel* itself relatively in sync, no? Especially the code audit that I imagine went into securing the OpenBSD kernel itself ...
