Richard, Great! I'm really happy you'll have the opportunity to spend some time on this--I know that a large number of FreeBSD consumers rely on Samba daily to get their jobs done, and any work you do relating to that will be something they appreciate a great deal :-). As you no doubt know, making FreeBSD perform as well as possible is something that we're extremely interested in, and would love to have your feedback on. If there's anything we can do to make your job easier, please don't hesitate to let us know. Thanks!
