I'm currently implementing Peridot 2.0, which is pre alpha, and am looking to features to add to it. I'm considering at the moment exactly how portable I want to make it, which is why I'm wondering how interested the community at large would be in the package. If there's not much interest specifically within the FreeBSD community, I'll make it more portable, at the cost of a few specific features. Currently it works as a "shell style" system, and the test system responds well under telnet, rlogin, and ssh. [ Name : Christine F.
