VirtualBox was always deprecating older FreeBSD releases much faster than our Security EOL so if we focus on latest 8.x and >= 9.0 I think it should be okay. We have already deprecated 7.x because of some other problems with the userland bits so we can forget about 7.x completely. What is left is 8.1 and 8.2 and both are EOL until mid 2012. So if is possible to get it merged in time for 8.3 and 9.1 (if needed) we should be fine. -- Bernhard Froehlich http://www.bluelife.at/
