I'm currently dealing with -CURRENT right now as I figure that might be the best way to deal with the FreeBSD developers. I'd figure that once we have sendfile(2) working, we can start dealing with other issues as I can identify them and pass them along. And, I might just get proficient enough where I can submit my own patches. =) I'm about to file a PR in FreeBSD-land and I'll update the STATUS file with that PR. -- justin
