I would like it if you would make KSE-3 work on other architectures now rather than adding more functionality that only works on i386. This would serve to validate the design decisions made thus far before a whole lot of code depends on those design decisions making it easier to make changes if need be. -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
