not exactly..

pcbsd.org, freebsd.org, netbsd.org, dragonflybsd.org, and openbsd.org are
all independent projects that spun off the 4.4 BSD source code

There is such a thing as http://www.bsd.org/  that seems to link out to
the others.  Mac OS X is derived from a BSD called Darwin.

Currently, the UC (as always) has a vast array of computational resources.
They even have a Windoze Lab! (ugg!) [=:O
