Debian BSD would have a great impact on FreeBSD users. Right now, as it is, we can download a program built on someone else's FreeBSD, pkg_add the program, and then run it without any problems. Another BSD distribution would bring the same problems the Linux community faces to FreeBSD. In Linux there are several different distributions. Therefore, a binary built on Redhat 6-glibc will not work on Slackware 4-libc5. Even the sources in some cases, won't compile on different Linux distributions.
