(The jail scheduling work of cdjones it something else I'm interested in, but for another time). Now the question becomes: how much jail work is out there, and what's the likelihood is it seeing the light of day in a released kernel? I hate to be going about coding stuff that's been done before (well, actually I enjoy coding it but you know...), but I only ever see snippets of jail work mentioned here and there and nothing ever seems to get anywhere official. I figured the place to talk about this was the freebsd-jail mailing list, but it seems to be mostly for stuff like "getting app X to work in a jail" or "the current jail rc scripts have this or that deficiency." That's why I cross-mailed to freebsd-hackers - maybe more appropriate there? Where's the secret place people really go to communicate this kind of thing? I've done a lot of work in the general jail-like area, and while much of it it the same as others' I'd like to share what isn't. Of course, with other people's jail-related projects staying on the sidelines so long - and that by those with "@freebsd.org" stature - one wonders if there's a point. I don't mean to sound down on anything, just wondering what the state of the "jail community" is. Or where it is. - Jamie
