Close, but not quite.

Nokia runs IPSO on their appliances.  Nokia acquired IPSO when they acquired 
Ipsilon (sp?), who did the original work.

It forked off of FreeBSD a number of years ago, not off of Open.  Open forked 
from NetBSD (Flames > /dev/null).  Net and Free BSD trace their parentage to 
the work at Bezerkly.


Open aspires to be a secure, general purpose OS, with audited, public source.  
IPSO, although derived from the same general roots, was stripped down and 
optimized for routing (its original purpose).
