Date: Tue, 29 Dec 1998 08:04:18 -0800 Message-ID: <6702.914947458@zippy.cdrom.com> From: "Jordan K. Hubbard" Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Guess it's time for another state of the union announcement on this topic - sorry for keeping folks in the dark. To summarize a very long debate, we're currently considering bringing back pcvt, voxware and SOFTMODEM support and will have a vote on this in the core team shortly, the results of which we will implement by Jan 1st. If anyone has additional items from the "hit list" that they'd like to consider, please send me mail and I'll add them to the list. There has also been a fair amount of fall-out from this, with unhappiness both inside and outside the core team on how all of this came down, and one of the conclusions to come out of this is that perhaps the core team is finally in need of reconstitituion. That is a matter we'll take up for the new year, and I'll be sending more mail out on this topic as we decide how we're going to work this. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
