 AFAIK, freebsd is still distributed with the older amd which is probably a
 variant of the one from 4.4bsd and upl102.  Other groups such as NetBSD and
 Debian found out about am-utils and have included it in their official
 distributions.  I was hoping that the FreeBSD folks would do the same.  If
 someone on amd-dev is involved w/ the FreeBSD project, you may want to
 inform someone that am-utils has MANY features useful for FreeBSD (and it
 works on both 2.x and 3.x).
