I think some mention of ATAPI SATA drives should be mentioned. I have
an SATA DVD-RW drive that needs a 7.0 kernel to be recognized, and
given some comments on the list, the problem seems to be have been
support for ATAPI SATA drives on FreeBSD 6.x(it's not in -STABLE). The
chipset on the motherboard is "supported" under 6.x and it's a generic
DVD-RW drive, but combined it's not supported without -CURRENT. I
think <http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=111084&cat=kern> is
related but I haven't tested the code(I'm currently on 6-STABLE and
about to upgrade to 7-CURRENT kernel and 6-STABLE userland).

Hi,
As some of you may know, I'm maintaining a web page which aims to
enumerate and describe major new features for FreeBSD 7, located at
http://ivoras.sharanet.org/freebsd/freebsd7.html .
Since 7.0 should be released "soon", I'd like to update the page with
the current status of the projects. In particular, I'd like to mark
projects that won't be ready for 7.0. To do so, I need input from the
projects' authors and maintainers. So if you are listed on the page
and your project status is updated and no longer matches what's
written on the page, please respond to this thread. Also, if a feature
won't be ready for 7.0 but will be sometime during 7.x, please state
so.
Of course, additions, corrections, etc. are also welcome.
Thanks :)
