Hello:

    One other thing that you might be interested in is the fact that Freemware
has its first release out.  ***It is not nearly complete yet***  They have
something out though, and it needs people to work on the code for FreeBSD.
Right now they are working mostly on the Linux stuff where it is OS
sensitive.  However, it would be appreciated if somebody wanted to work on the
FreeBSD specific code.
