I believe that there is a general expectation by freebsd users and developers that unsupported code should not be in CVS. Although sun4v is a very interesting platform for developers doing SMP work, I simply do not have the time or energy to maintain it. If someone else would like to step up and try his hand I would be supportive of his efforts. In the likely event that no one steps forward by the time that 7.1 is released I will ask that it be moved to the Attic. Thanks, Kip
