Re: Bitrig support?

It appears that the last commit to their source gate was in 2017 
(https://github.com/bitrig/bitrig), and the website for the OS had its 
cert expire at ... Firefox says 5/9/2022 but I don't know if that's the 
5th of Sept or the 9th of May.

Wikipedia claims that it was based on OpenBSD and that OpenBSD has 
merged most of their changes.

How different is Bitrig from OpenBSD?
