The last FreeBSD Development Status report was over a month ago, and given its success, we'll try it again this month. As with the previous edition, I'm interested in seeing about one paragraph per on-going project (or for major projects, a paragraph for each major component of the project) describing work that has happened since the last report. If no prior report has been given for the project, a general overview paragraph as well as status is acceptable. If more than one person is working on a project, only a single report should be submitted (although if there are reports for components, they might be seperately submitted by the relevant developers). Take a look at the previous month's report for a sense of how this works (in particular, see how TrustedBSD and SMPng reports were broken out). Developers should feel free to submit more than one report, if they are working on more than one project. Reports should relate to the FreeBSD Project, but are not limited to software development: they could include documentation work, web work, FreeBSD.org cluster management, cooperation with application developers, public relations activities, partnering with companies, funding announcements for new projects, etc. In the past report the primary focus was development, and that will remain important to the status report, of course, but other parts of the FreeBSD Project are welcome to submit status! Please submit reports in the following format: Project: (name here -- required) URL: (URL, if any, here -- omit line if none) Contact: (name and e-mail address of a contact point -- required) One paragraph on the topic of the project status since the last report, indented two spaces, and wrapped before column 78. Plain text only, please. Please send submissions to: robert+freebsd.monthly@cyrus.watson.org The deadline for submissions is Friday August 3, 2001, at 3:00pm EST. The report will be released soon thereafter.
