Anyone is interested?

I am in phase of kernel compilation:) Pure FreeBSD was always so NotForDesktop to me, but I wanted to see some of this promised stability and security and I just like deamons. Maybe this project is somethin what I want. Oh love this vmware:)

To be honest, I never really saw the point of this project, beyond that the developers had an itch to scratch and went ahead with it.

Nice and all, but FreeBSD does have it's own well working package management system. So do Net and Open.
