This is a topic for -questions. Speaking bluntly, your posts have been pretty off-topic for the FreeBSD-stable list so far and I wish you'd go read the charter for it (see the Handbook) because you're starting to abuse the list. This goes especially when one of your off-topic posts subsequently spawns a thread of over 20 messages in the wrong mailing list, as your last one did. I appreciate your need to be informed, but please do it in the right forums or you'll merely degrade lists like -stable for the rest of us (who want to continue to use it to track issues *specific* to the FreeBSD-stable branch).
