Hi, Firstly I notice that 9.1-RC1 is tagged in upstream SVN and probably being built right now. The release was originally due for August but now looks more like it could be September/October:
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.1R/schedule.html The 9.0 kernel was meant to receive upstream security support only until the end of January 2013. It seems likely we would want to release 9.1 through t-p-u, for the first point release after wheezy. 9.1 could then be expected to get extended security support of two years from its release, which is plenty. http://www.freebsd.org/security/security.html#sup Unblock request #683739 wasn't accepted yet but if 9.1 gets into the first point release instead that should help with the haxe situation for jessie. I also notice that 8.1 became end-of-life at the end of July, so the recent security fix could be the last. Version 8.2 in squeeze-backports also became end-of-life at the same time. So I'm not sure where that leaves current squeeze users. I wonder if a squeeze backport of 8.3 is viable (it would also need newer zfstools, at least), just in case some awkward problem befalls 8.1 in the next ~15 months.
