Again, is there any estimate for 1.3?

This is 100% completely open source. The source ported to RELENG_1_2 is even in the public CVS server in its own branch. It's just the images including it are not publicly available. It was back ported as a thanks to those who contributed. You could figure out what it is in CVS and sync a 1.2 install with that code.

I see. Guess that makes it open source strictly speaking, but it is not
the 100% openness I would expect from an open source project.  While I
understand that people have to earn a living, this bounty policy makes
things difficult for people who want to evaluate before deciding.

I think I should use the time left to the first 1.3 beta to try a
FreeBSD/PF/ALT setup and see what I run into.
