I am the driver developer at Intel specifically for FreeBSD, and for various reasons there are multiple release paths for my code, an internal one that ends up being on the Intel web site, and the community path which ends up in the public source. I do my best to keep them in sync but at times due to how busy I am with what, they may vary a bit, but that should always be a temporary situation that I will remedy. I have been busy for a number of weeks on an important internal project but that's winding down and I'm playing catch-up at the moment, so this stuff should get sync'ed up soon.
