Based on my current experience with a few ISP's, I hope the nature of this lends itself to more accessible technical abilities.
I think too often communication goes from sales to support to the techs, and often even advanced users feel put upon because the chain of communication breaks down.

Every FreeBSD release has been delayed by some amount of time, it's natural. The development process for this operating system doesn't rush it out the door in time for a deadline, nor does it draw clearcut lines in cases where doing so will damage its quality.
This is the way development should be done in all cases, IMHO.
