I'd be interested in seeing submissions of this sort, including mass deployment, new research done on the platform, etc. The development status report is limited to new development on -CURRENT, and can include status on merging of features to -stable, the release process, etc. At one point, Jordan was spitting out a FreeBSD news letter once in a while. Dunno if we'll ever see it again, but I thought that was a good idea, and was part of the impetus for exploring a monthly electronic report. Of course, I've never received status information from Jordan :-).
