What's the status of VKERNEL stuff? was one of the major things for this release. We are having a lot of problems with our IRQ routing code, i remember you proposing a solution for it some time ago, do you think that it's doable in time for the release? I wouldn't like to ship with stability problems and in my opinion we should delay the release until that is fixed. About testing, i think that we should start looking to do automated regression testing of the system as much as we can. TET[1] looks like a very good solution and FreeBSD is probably going to use it[2], so we could get a lot of regression tests for free that apply to DragonFly.
