Thanks for your inquiry. We evaluated support for 4.x and 5.x as we began the beta. Based on the requirements of the people we were working with, the decision was made to focus on production systems using 4.x Of course we are interested in supporting 5.x in as reasonable a time frame as possible. But right now we have a lot of work to do on the current family of products in beta. We would be greatful if folks could hold off on the 5.x issues for the time being, though I'm sure someone will hack away at it and see how far they can get. I was looking for a simple way to communicate this information to the FreeBSD community, because I have answered this several times, including on our forum http://www.serenityvirtual.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid= 1505 I would appreciate any suggestions you may have.
