> Did these changes make it back into FreeBSD? I'm sure that Justin's too nice a guy to say that the above question is just about meaningless in any real-world context, so I'll jump in and cuff you upside the head instead. :) What Justin's describing is truly significant set of changes here, and even though those changes are freely available as part of the Darwin CVS repository and have been for some time, it's the FreeBSD project really gating whether "these changes make it back." Justin's the wrong guy to ask if you're sincerely interested in determining the answer to that question. Maybe a better preliminary question would be "has anyone discussed bringing these changes back to FreeBSD?" Hearing the answer to that, which happens to be "No", you'd then quickly realize that there's at least 90 days of discussion in-arch ahead before the second question becomes even relevant. If you'd like to start the clock on that, cite the relevent bits of Justin's posting and frame a question in -arch as to whether people would support or resist the adoption of Apple's NKE framework and related changes. Good luck. :) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
