That rings a very faint bell for me for some reason, even though I'm pretty sure it was dead long before I got my bit. CTM is still in use today, in a recent action to depricate it in base it was found that there are infact users, and users who wish to maintain it. I do not know of CTM is impacted by this, that group would need to respond. > > -Ravi (rpokala@) > > ?-----Original Message----- > From: <owner-src-committers@freebsd.org> on behalf of Ed Maste <emaste@freebsd.org> > Date: 2019-03-14, Thursday at 12:21 > To: "Rodney W.
