It seems they were using some of the tools:

https://2011.eurobsdcon.org/papers/gras/minix-bsd.pdf

"ABSTRACT MINIX 3 has imported a significant amount of userland BSD code. The trend began several years ago, but the pace has quickened markedly. We have already imported NetBSD’s buildsystem, NetBSD’s C library, the pkgsrc package management infrastructure, and various userland utilities from NetBSD and FreeBSD."

I thought we were talking about whether or not MINIX was using FreeBSD userland before moving to NetBSD for 3.2.0.

I was just generally asking. But thanks.
