Hi, I'm happy to announce that one of the Google Summer of Code students we got is working on improving the linuxolator in -current (yes, parts which can be merged to -stable will be merged). Welcome Roman! The goal is to update from the current linux kernel version (2.4.x) to 2.6.x. This will allow us to update the default linux base to FC5 in the future, which is not possible ATM. A detailed TODO list is available from "http://wikitest.freebsd.org/RomanDivacky". The TODO list contains a lot more items than what can be delivered in the SoC, so don't be surprised if the SoC ends and the TODO list still contains some unfinished items. I will commit milestones to current from time to time and announce calls for help here accordingly. For each milestone we will need some feedback from all of you how it works in your daily work. Additionaly we may need some more specific reports about some behavior, but this will be announced in the call for help. I hope a lot of testers will participate to let "our" student enjoy his Summer of Code and make it an experience he will remember well for a long time.
