First of all, really great to hear from you again nd great to see you continued to work on it. The FAQ however is sad: * When will it be included in FreeBSD? Difficult question. VPS has its code and little changes almost everywhere in the kernel, making it a really significant change and source of potential issues for FreeBSD. So no integration is planned yet. Applying the patch and compiling yourself or using the prebuilt binary distributions is easy. The patch seems to be 1.2M for 9.0, include some noise like kernel config changes etc, but seems mostly nice-ish. You might at least want to consider to see if you can get small edge-stuff but basic infrastructure changes factored out and submitted so it might be easier for you to maintain this. 9.0 will drop out of security support end of Jnauary and latest if going to 10 you may find yourself having to re-do and merge large chunks possibly so the patch is eventually doomed to run into the same problems as other work that was stuck on FreeBSD 4 for almost a decade. A lot of people really would love this but it rquires community involvement to get at least a fraction of the maintainance costs of your shoulders. /bz -- Bjoern A. Zeeb You have to have visions!
