+What's new in FreeBSD 5.3
+
+ NDIS Binary Compatibility allows Windows XP network
+ device drivers to be used with FreeBSD.
+
+ IP Fast Forwarding for dramatic speedups in FreeBSD
+ based routers.
+
+ Continued locking and performance improvements to take
+ advanced of SMPng architecture.
+
+
+
+
+FreeBSD 5.3 Network Changes
+ FreeBSD (i386) can use binary Ethernet and WLAN network
+ drivers written to the Windows XP NDIS 5.1 specification. Windows
+ drivers are turned into FreeBSD Kernel Loadable Modules (KLDs) with
+ the ndisvt command :
+
+ # ndiscvt -O -i neti557x.inf -s neti557x.sys \
+ -n intel0
+# kldload intel0
+
+ More information is available in ndis(4), ndisapi(9), and
+ ndiscvt(8). This functionality was written by Bill Paul.

+ FreeBSD Development Model
+
+
+
+ FreeBSD development continues along two parallel
+ branches; FreeBSD-CURRENT and FreeBSD-STABLE.
+
+ FreeBSD-CURRENT is the main trunk of our CVS
+ repository. All new development should happen
+ here.
+
+ FreeBSD-STABLE is the branch from which major releases
+ are made. Changes enter this branch at a different pace, and
+ with the general assumption that they have been well tested by
+ our user community running -CURRENT.
+
+

+ FreeBSD Release Diagram
+
+ Chart from releng paper goes here.

+
+
+
+
+ FreeBSD Development Model
+
+
+ Thousands of developers around the world contribute
+ code to FreeBSD.
+
+ Only the committers
have write access
+ to the CVS repository.
+
+ 324 total committers in FreeBSD (includs source,
+ documentation, and ports committers).
+
+ 212 active committers to src/ in the last 12
+ months.
+
+ 165 active committers to src/sys in the last 12
+ months.
+
+
+
+
+
+ FreeBSD Development Model
+
+
+ Users and external developers should submit bug fixes,
+ enhancements, or problem reports with GNATS.
+
+ Online submission forms, send-pr command installed by
+ default on FreeBSD systems, etc.

+ FreeBSD Release Process
+
+
+
+ Stable
releases are made from the
+ -STABLE development branch at approximately 4 month
+ intervals.
+
+ Major new versions (3.0, 4.0, 5.0, etc..) are released
+ at much longer intervals when the main goals for that release
+ have been realized.
+
+
+ 3.0 - October 1998
+ 4.0 - March 2000
+ 5.0 - January 2003
+
+
+
+
+ In periods of transition, point releases from the
+ previous branch are still released while the next major
+ release branch stabilizes. (e.g., 4.8, 4.9, and 4.10 were
+ released after 5.0)
