Well, since this well now be part of the standard installation (in 5.0 and 4.8 I mean), we should publicize this a little.. I'm involved with the FreeBSD-advocacy stuff, and I'm looking for tidbits of information that we can use to write up articles, or press releases on this. Should help build up "hype" for 5.0 (and 4.8 of course). Anyone have some good bits I can start gathering? How about some of the developers? Here are some simple questions to start with: What does the firewire stuff work with? How does a FreeBSD user get it to work? Cool features?
