It is really nice starting point for comparision!

What you think about adding PC-BSD's PBI to the table? I think it is 
closely related to FreeBSD project and many potential FreeBSD users will 
come from PC-BSD camp (or vice versa).


You can update the FreeBSD column with this:

Config files updating tool            NO
Startup scripts management tool       NO
Automatic restart of daemons          NO

Automatic management of users/groups  YES
License framework (info/agreement)    YES

Thank you for your work.
