I would like to contribute to FreeBSD and among high priority tasks I have found the one in the subject of this mail (source: http://doc.ctrlaltdel.ch/freebsd/handbook/contrib.html). Unfortunately, I did not find any details regarding specifications of the task as well as no information regarding accomplished progress in this direction. Can you please share with me this info? I.e., what have been done, what has to be done, and what are the goals? Thanks, -- with best regards, Volodymyr.
