Line 4:
Most of the current BSD operating systems are [[Open-source software|open source]] and available for download, free of charge, under the [[BSD License]]. They also generally use a [[monolithic kernel]] architecture, apart from DragonFly BSD which feature [[hybrid kernel]]s. The various open source BSD projects generally develop the kernel and [[user space|userland]] programs and libraries together, the source code being managed using a single central source repository.
 
In the past, BSD washas also been used as a basis for several proprietary versions of UNIX, such as [[Apple Inc.]]'s [[MacOS]], [[Sun Microsystems|Sun]]'s [[SunOS]], [[Sequent Computer Systems|Sequent]]'s [[Dynix]], [[NeXT]]'s [[NeXTSTEP]], [[Digital Equipment Corporation|DEC]]'s [[Ultrix]] and OSF/1 AXP (which became the now discontinued [[Tru64 UNIX]]).
