I don't WANT to commit without more testing and more support for the other platforms. However I need support from the people DOING those platforms to go further. I also want more people to try the patches. So far the only problem Matt Dillon and I have seen is the re-appearance of a panic during reboot that must be something silly I've done :-) I'll be doing MFC's each day into P4, and keeping my patch set at http://www.freebsd.org/~julian/thediff up to date. (If you have cvs access you have P4 access if you'd rather do that) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
