Off topic: NetBSD or OpenBSD for Alpha server ?

Since the alpha forum for FreeBSD is closed, and there has not been
Alpha support since 6.4 I wondered about which OS to install on a alpha
server I am getting quite soon. I guess FreeBSD 6.4 is perhaps not the
best since it is not maintained and the ports tree likewise ?
So I checked the 2 other main contenders and just wanted to ask if
anyone here had an opinion what 2 install of the BSDs ? Or perhaps
FreeBSD 6.4 is a good choice ( I have not tested Open or Net BSD so
FreeBSD is my hometurf) The machine will probably be a server to have
fun with and hopefully learn something from. Perhaps some server role in
my rig, routing, security etc.....
Any advise would be nice :)
