No. I'm saying that there won't be a PAO release. I'm also saying that is because it won't be needed. The work that is generally done out of the tree will likely be done in tree. In other words PAO functionality will be merged into normal FreeBSD in the coming months in various ways. Right now you don't need PAO for most things. The drivers that are in PAO will be merged into the tree (look at the sn driver recently committed). Other drivers are on the list, but likely after 4.0 release happens. I don't think the wlp driver is going to happen before 4.0 release. I've personally not run PAO on my laptop since I used the PAO install disk to install things back in the 2.2.x time frame (although I might be confusing my VAIO and my libretto) when I immediately did the make world on 3.0-current.
