I am busy categorising the POSIX compliance as well as the Single Unix Specification v2 for FreeBSD on source level basis. Thus far I have done some things on SSv2 already at http://home.wxs.nl/~asmodai under the Programmer's Documentation Project link. I also am a member of the Austin group which reviews the POSIX specs for their new version. I hope to do positive work for FreeBSD there (NetBSD, BSDI, and the Linux Standard Base are amongst the other attendees) and I urge other people with at least more longstanding POSIX/FreeBSD hacking to join as well just for the sake of compliancy and pre-information.
