This was a surprise. I'm happy to see the work go into current but I would
have appreciated being included in any core discussions about it before it
happened.

Having said that, I want to publically thank Peter Wemm and everyone else
who has got involved with the project for helping to make this happen and
for fixing up the rough edges.  This finally gets rid of some of the worst
parts of 386bsd which we have lived with for so long and gives us a chance
to have a true 'plug and play' device system for modern hardware.
