Hello,

In  your Winter Usenix flier you request that people reserve slots in the
Works in Progress section by emailing to here.. (wips@usenix.org)

So here goes...
I'd like to request a slot to have a quick talk about what we're doing in
FreeBSD on a devices filesystem..(DEVFS)
this is an important piece in the jigsaw puzzle that is 
a  more dynamically loadable modular kernel.
As devices are found or reconfigured, the device files in devfs change
to reflect what devices are available. looking exaclty like a dynamic /dev
something similar can be seen in solaris, but this is a differnt 
implimentation..

Hopefully this is all the information you need ?

I think their might be some other projects from FreeBSD that might be
interested in puting up a 10 minute slot as well...
