If it doesn't do that soon ( been waiting 4 months now), then I will go STABLE and use crochet to build for Raspberry pi. I want to update this desktop first in case I make a mess of it.

I am rebuilding my entire network and want to have all the machines using the same base and ports. I will have two raspberrypi that handle DNS, NTP, NNTP and email ( full email server exim and dovcot2 plus fetchmail ) Right now this is on an old Dell lapdog using jails I have a third raspberrypi 3 that I will try to run ningx (sp?), when FreeBSD goes pi 3.
