[ DEVFS in stable ] > > Actually, come to think of it, are they any good in -stable? Should > they just be cvs rm'd and left out?

If you feel comfortable in removing them from -stable w/out breaking the tree, I'm sure no-one will mind. Jordan has already stated publically that he's not touching stable, and I put in the last critical fix for stable last night. The only issues I see left for stable are documentation issues and ports. Apparently the documentation was going to get updated 'en-masse', so I'm waiting for it to happen. And, the IPFW stuff is still in limbo with me. Some of the documentation/hooks and such were brought into -stable, but others weren't. Poul or someone else should finish the job he started. Me, I'm still using the old version with the 'bug you could drive a tank through', but I'm not worried since my box hasn't went down in over 3 months, so the bug won't affect me until I manually reboot my box and/or the power goes out. If the latter happens I'm not worried either since my ISP (across the street) takes about twice as long form my link to come up, which means my entries will be in place long before the internet comes a knocking. :) Nate
