Hi Folks, This week started with a very helpful video chat with Allan on some clarification of deep boot environment theory, existing tools, and likely pitfalls. Afterwards, Allan suggested a few nice additional features to add: bootenv import/export via send/recv, and a clone-promotion if you will, where a highly dependent clone of a bootenv is duplicated/decoupled using send and receive on the backend. I've been adding those in yesterday and today. On Monday, I'll be on a quite lengthy flight to BSDCam, so with laptops all charged up, I'll be working on the deep boot env code, starting with create(), and then from there, the necessary mechanisms for safely activating. Take care, Kyle
