OpenBSD takes in my game *portability* at any level: I do backups of my system in 12min.. and I can put it almost on any hardware.. this not little thing. It is defintely a problems of dev environment. It is starting from the thought that other OS have Docker, etc, where I can *download* any php version on the fly.. so yes, the choice of OpenBSD can be judge wrong. But for the posterity: I manage to work with Docker also online and with many other virtualization facilities so like I said before I can rationally choose to move things on live servers taking my portability God to the n extension.. But do not unplug me like my daughter does pushing a plug button.. > (In any event, whatever OS you use, if you find it unacceptable > to have your systems broken after an upgrade, you really should test > those upgrades on a spare machine/VM first..) As said above, there a no rumors of a broken OS around, like OpenBSD. And I work with the same hardware since decades.. It is all about the dev environment: more precisely I need to be able to choose the moment when to switch to PHP[N] and do entering in the update process of all my web apps, thats it. However your suggestion is really a good one for everyone. Thanks! -- Daniele Bonini
