AFAIK, Julian still hasn't solved the persistance problem (though we discussed a number of different ways it could be done fairly trivially and I don't know what's holding him up) and people running with it as their /dev still show an unfortunate tendency to crash a lot, so no. > So the way I see things (and since I'm not a core team person, this is > just my opinion), FreeBSD 2.2 could easily be released by Christmas, or > even the end of November. I think if the core team puts the squeeze on NFS weirdness seems to be the #1 monster under the bed with 2.2 - might some of you folks out there with multiple machines be willing to assist John and Doug with some stress-testing? If you can find and reproduce bugs yourselves, that's even better (e.g. they need someone to help play QA team on NFS). Jordanhome | help
