FreeBSD's development began in 1993 with a quickly growing,
unofficial patchkit maintained by users of the 386BSD operating
system. This patchkit forked from 386BSD and grew into an operating
system taken from U.C. Berkeley's 4.3BSD-Lite (Net/2) tape with many
386BSD components and code from the Free Software Foundation.

The Free Software Foundation (FSF) is a non-profit corporation
founded by Richard Stallman on 4 October 1985 to support the free
software movement, a copyleft-based movement which aims to promote
the universal freedom to distribute and modify computer software
without restriction .

about the other.
