This is the first time I’ve heard this, and I couldn’t find any sources for it. Everything I’ve ever read indicated they based off of Mach and FreeBSD. I’d love to see sources to the contrary.
It’s cool. I don’t know why more people don’t use the BSDs as a basis for a project. Depending on what you’re doing just starting with a UNIX like OS means there’s time to pivot if you’re not writing drivers for specific hardware. I’ll never understand why people use Windows for that kind of thing.

Yeah, it’s taken from FreeBSD.

Any OpenBSD references are related to things like documentation and the “pf” firewall, which FreeBSD imported from OpenBSD to begin with.
