This is a bit off topic, but I'm choosing to post here because I might not
be the only one interested in this quote:

    "Being a research-oriented OS, FreeBSD is, as implied by its name,
     a Free Code OS, i.e. it is distributed along with the entire code
     and can be compiled and altered at will in private environments."

The use "private environments" here is unclear I believe. Am I mistaken in
understanding that it can be compiled and altered at will in any and all
environments? I don't mean to "troll" the list or anything of the sort,
I'm simply an obsessive and quite picky guy when it comes to details ;)

This looks like a great package, I thank you for bringing this to the
list, I'm on my way to try this out now.

Regards,
Matt
