It is no longer being developed, and some of the work that it had done was merged back into OpenBSD. Some of its achievements included porting FUSE/puffs support, libc++ to the platform to replace libstdc++, PIE support for AMD64 and NDB kernel support.
Bitrig focused on using modern tools such as Git and LLVM/Clang along with only focusing on modern platforms.
It aimed to have a "commercially friendly code base", with texinfo being the only GNU tool in the base system. GPT partitioning was supported by Bitrig, and future plans included support for virtualisation and EFI.
