+      <p><tt>bhyve</tt> is a hypervisor that runs on the &os;/amd64
+	platform.  At present, it runs &os; (8.x or later), Linux
+	i386/x64, OpenBSD i386/amd64, NetBSD/amd64, Illumos, and Windows
+	Vista/7/8/10/2008r2/2012r2/2016 x64 guests.  Current development
+	is focused on enabling additional guest operating systems and
+	implementing features found in other hypervisors.</p>
+
+      <p>A combined <tt>bhyve</tt> and ZFS BoF was held during vBSDCon 2015,
+	hosted by Michael Dexter and Allan Jude.  Questions asked about
+	<tt>bhyve</tt> were live migration and suspend/resume support, and
+	configurations using ZFS.</p>
+
+      <p>Three bhyve-related project were selected for GSoC 2015:
+	NE2000 device emulation, porting <tt>bhyve</tt> to ARM, and
+	ptnetmap support.</p>
+
+      <p>The major enhancement for <tt>bhyve</tt> this quarter was
+	support for an external firmware, along with a port of the Intel
+	edk2 UEFI firmware.  This allows bhyve to run Windows in headless
+	mode, and also Illumos.</p>
