I doubt that there's much "big" in the ambit of "Unix-like OS" that isn't already in the 8-current series. In a project like FreeBSD, "what's in the roadmap" equates pretty closely with "what are the developers working on", and that is summarised in the quarterly status reports, such as this one: http://www.freebsd.org/news/status/report-2009-01-2009-03.html As for when any of this will "hit the tree" and find its way into a release, that's very much a "how long is a piece of string" sort of question; not really the way FreeBSD works. Particularly since it moved to a calendar-based release schedule. IMO, YMMV, i-do-not-speak-for-freebsd, etc. Cheers, -- Andrew
