Does FreeBSD, Inc. have some special deal set up with VMWare? AFAIK
VMWare has always been commercial (pay) software, yet it's in the ports
collection. I'm not complaining, but what's up with that? 

Also, there is a note on VMWare's web site stating "On Dec. 4 our
company will discontinue the current hobbyist pricing and begin charging
a standard $299 fee..." Will this policy change on their part have any
effect on VMWare's existence as a port?

Thanks.
