Well, let me put it this way.

4.0-RELEASE sounds like it will start becoming available at about the same
time as other OS's make new releases *with* IPv6/IPSec.  You work it out
whether or not FreeBSD will win or lose from those two being there or not
there.

btw, I completely agree with the need to have good pccard/pcmcia support.
For the first time there was a real reason for me to ditch FreeBSD on an
Intel platform box (my laptop) and go with NetBSD where my 3c589d works
just fine.
