>Description:

The mount_udf(8) man page fails to specify which specific revision or 
revisons of the UDF standard are supported by mount_udf.

This is a seriously problem, because there scurrilous rumors floating
around the Internet to the effect that on FreeBSD, only version 1.50 of
the UDF standard is supported, and that thus, Blu-Ray disks (which use
UDF versions 2.50 or 2.60) cannot be mounted as filesystems by FreeBSD.

>How-To-Repeat:

man 8 mount_udf

>Fix:

Document which version of the UDF standard is supported by mount_udf.
