Um, how do you figure last conversation with wiki references is 8 months old? It got brought up in a converation on -hackers just last month: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2008-June/024956.html And was the starting point for a conversation on -chat last month as well: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-chat/2008-June/005579.html > In particular, none of these activities seem to pop up in the regular > FreeBSD Project status reports.
