[SailfishDevel] Replacing Linux with OpenBSD

[Luciano Montanaro]

It would be quite a lot of work, I believe...

For one, sailfish is based on mer, which uses systemd, which is linux specific.

Then, the currently available (well, it will be available shortly!)
hardware needs Android drivers.

I have not been using BSD in a while... what are its advantages? In
embedded projects, Linux starts to be quite entrenched... :)
