The original research group responsible for BSD development, the Computer Systems Research Group (CSRG) at the University of California, Berkeley, was shut down in the mid 1990s. The origin of all extant *BSD projects is a CSRG release named Net/2, which consists of the unencumbered portions of the 4.3BSD-Reno release and unencumbered replacements for ATT's utilities.
