Can someone put a document on what is the desired model? I think we=20 have too much little pieces of disperse notes about this. Also, some working notes about ports and RELENG_4/RELENG_5 src issues=20 will be of interest. Hope this can be tweak in time for 6.1 (Jan).=20 =2D- josemi -- This mail was scanned by AntiVir Milter.
