Being a geek yourself you should understand that :-) I understand most thoroughly. =) If you really want to play with RAIDframe I'd guess you'll have a much easier time of it under NetBSD, where it is included with the operating system. Getting it working under FreeBSD could be a lot of fun and you might learn a lot, but I don't see it being a terribly useful exercise otherwise. I get the impression that most of us are quite happy with vinum and would not desire that FreeBSD bloat the kernel by including two software RAID frameworks. Then again, I speak for noone by myself.
