=== FreeBSD and NetBSD === After the release of 386BSD 0.1,<ref name="0.1-release" /> a group of users began collecting bug fixes and enhancements, releasing them as an unofficial ''[[patch (computing)|patchkit]]''. Due to differences of opinion between the Jolitzes and the patchkit maintainers over the future direction and release schedule of 386BSD,<ref name="386bsd-faq"/> the maintainers of the patchkit founded the [[FreeBSD]] project in 1993 to continue their work.<ref name="Auto7E-1"/> Around the same time, the [[NetBSD]] project was founded by a different group of 386BSD users, with the aim of unifying 386BSD with other strands of BSD development into one multi-platform system. Both projects continue to this day. The FreeBSD [[website]] at the time claimed that 386BSD suffered from "neglect". However, the 386BSD site claimed that this is not true:<ref name=":0" /> {{Quote|text=This whole "FreeBSD roots" is completely fictitious, and invented to cover the wholesale theft of the 386BSD user base.}}
