All that you can possibly gather, I guess.

The actual data, or just references or links to the data?
Is it going to be published on the Internet?

That kind of nitty gritty is mostly in a few books and lots of
e-messages in archives.  Searching this ML (at least) for BSD and
book(s) should find lists of the few books.  The old 4.4 BSD-lite (?)
documents (at freebsd.org) and the book "The Design and Implementation
of the 4.4BSD Operating System" by McKusick et al, have a lot of detail,
but it's hard to know what's changed since they were written.  A great
resource is http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search as is
http://www.google.com/advanced_search .

Here's one URL I grabbed on the memory system:

Bottom of http://www.FreeBSD.org/news/index.html has some links.
