Hey Jonn, this news is better than my Monday AM coffee.

Once you have something working, however crudely, I'd love to =
link/post/reference it on the growing wiki page- so folks can give it a =
whirl.
https://wiki.freebsd.org/UsersFetchingSource

(If this project succeeds, it will neatly get rid of the purpose of the =
page!)

Thanks-

Best,
