+      <p>iSCSI is a popular block storage protocol.   Under this project,
+	a new, fast, and reliable kernel-based iSCSI initiator (client)
+	and target (server) have been implemented.</p>
+
+      <p>During October to December, the work focused on performance and
+	scalability.   The target and the initiator now spread the load
+	over multiple kernel threads, and the locking is optimized to
+	reduce contention.  This makes better use of multiple processor
+	cores.</p>
+
+      <p>Work to finish iSER support is ongoing.   All those
+	optimizations will be gradually merged to <tt>head</tt> in
+	February, and are expected to merged back to <tt>stable/10</tt>
+	and finally arrive in <tt>10.1-RELEASE</tt>.</p>
+
+      <p>This project is sponsored by The &os; Foundation.</p>
