Hi virtualbox users!

I am very glad to be able to send out a VirtualBox 4.2.0 call for testers.
We've done a good job pushing many patches upstream before the
release this time so our port is much smaller and easier to handle.

The stability of 4.2.0 seems to be better than the past .0 releases so
our plan is to commit 4.2 to the portstree as soon as FreeBSD 9.1 is
out the door. Feedback from this CFT will tell us where we really are
so please also report positive feedback.

We are still looking for more people that can help with vbox maintenance
and development but the situation improved already since Mikhail
Tsatsenko and Ed Maste joined the team! Thanks a lot guys!! If you
are interested or have noticed a bug you can easily find us on IRC.


Please ensure that your Kernel sources match your running kernel before
building the virtualbox-ose-kmod port!
