Both of these remain true. I certainly see and understand the "marketing value" of having an early IPv6 implementation, but I don't see this as mainstream interest so much as interest on the part of various researchers and early-adopters, all of which can go to the KAME site and grab the patches to 3.2-stable if they want to play now, today. If we haven't done a good enough job of making that clear and are suffering from defections to other *BSDs because of this, then we just need to get the word out better. :-) It's not like nothing is available at all, simply not "officially" and officially we have an obligation to pick the best, most technically correct route, something which I believe we have already done. Two merges sounds like a nightmare, and we're not suffering from NetBSD's release constraints here. :) > - We need some more FreeBSD commit privs for other KAME guys. > (this is a easy part) Yes, this is certainly the easy part. As always, just let us know if there's anything we can do. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
