I think that we must also emphasise that we now have a group of people here in .za (Mark, the guys at the CSIR, and - believe it or not :-) :-) - myself) who are committed to getting a CVS repository site/FreeBSD archive site here in .za. As I mentioned on another thread, Mark has agreed to prick my conscience in order to get me a bit more active with FreeBSD again. With my (attempted) reentry into the FreeBSD fray I hope I can get a bit of work in in this area. I am prepared (if necessary) to make a few of trips (evenings and weekends - time permitting) to the CSIR to assist in any config work required on skeleton. (That includes getting it up to -current, work on CVS etc. and any work required to get the machine fully up to steam.) (For me to get to the CSIR is not too far - it's just a trip to Pretoria.) Other areas to look at include getting skeleton running CTM etc. Also, to reiterate a few things discussed on the phone with Mark yesterday: I fully support Mark taking on the leadership role in the work on the secure/crypt bits. With Mark at the helm on this one, I hope we should be able to get some reasonable progress.
