Just had a look at the old website and it appears that is has been updated, awsome! If any FreeBSD core team are reading this, please push back the 5.2 release to around Novemeber-December. The current time frame is bloody rediculous. If libpthread, KSE and a decent amount of SMP aren't done then it makes the 5.x series completely worthless. Things like the fine graining of components are can done gradually, however, with that being said, the key "features" that were touted in the 5.x should be finished such as KSE and libpthread, the SMP can be gradually implemented.
