I can't find any sources that make notability clear. The article lists "created PC-BSD", and a couple of interviews in connection with that role, but this doesn't seem to have been noticed, or an achievement, to an extent that would make the subject notable. It also states he hosts a podcast but there's zero evidence suggesting notability of the podcast either separately or even combined. My searching also showed that he is elected for 2 years as a member of the FreeBSD Core Team by his fellow committers on the project, but again no evidence of more specific notice of the subject himself being taken by the wider world in connection with this. Apart from that - nothing found. So in summary, a bunch of 3 separate possible grounds for notability are known, but none of them seem strong, and there's no evidence that even the 3 combined have gained the subject wider attention in his own right as needed for WP:NBIO. It seems that we have a handful of weak grounds but no real evidence to show overall notability, and I don't feel that the few tenuous grounds listed, make up for absence of a single evidenced and appropriate ground. While I'm not sure whether or not the subject is notable, I'm leaning more towards doubt. So I'm seeking wider input. FT2 ^{(Talk | email)} 09:26, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to TrueOS (formerly PC-BSD). I cannot find the significant independent coverage that would be needed to establish notability. However, as the creator of PC-BSD, a redirect would make sense. -- Whpq (talk) 13:28, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Redirect: Both mean the subject does not deserve a stand-alone article on Wikipedia. I did not look into the connection of PC-BSD (TrueOS) but per User:Whpq agree that a redirect would be acceptable. Otr500 (talk) 02:22, 8 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to TrueOS as he is its creator. --TheSandDoctor ^Talk 00:33, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
