Re: Details about Playstation 4 OS development
#2I find it interesting as a user and big fan of BSD systems, but what I wonder about is if it will bring back to the project some work that has been done there, like support for AMD devices, or, even better, chance for alternative OS in form of FreeBSD. Very unlikely, but that'd be cool, indeed!

Very unlikely indeed. I assume the reason Sony chooses BSD is because of the license, they don't even have to say what OS they use. I don't think they'll open source any of their software.
Like PS3 and PSP is believed to run NetBSD, but we never see contribution from sony to BSD community.
