People need to know about the cool things being done with, or to, or by FreeBSD. In an effort that will surely never come back to haunt us all, I have committed all the reports I saw in monthly@ to the upcoming status report. However, I am also easily distracted by shiny objects and might have missed some. If you have not yet received a passive-aggressive "thanks" mail, please make sure your report is included here: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/doc/head/en_US.ISO8859-1/htdocs/news/status/report-2015-04-2015-06.xml?view=markup If your report is missing or not present, please resubmit to bjk@FreeBSD.org, monthly@FreeBSD.org, and cc me at wblock@FreeBSD.org. The deadline is July 14 (yes, today), but of course some of us would rather wait than miss interesting reports. Or dull ones, to be honest. But there is an interesting report lurking inside even the dull ones. Particularly if some words are replaced with others. Assistance in polishing a bare list of feats into a truly Herculean accomplishment can be provided on a limited-time, first-come first-serve, contents may have settled during shipment basis. Grammer can be goodered and Englished up, too.
