===== Need =====
  * File system for directly-attached NAND - a.k.a. nandfs that actually works (stevek/Juniper) -- also need a framework for talking to the NAND that leverages DMA and ECC insertion to make that viable...

    * %%ArmNN%% port (Andrew Wafaa)
  * 802.11ac (adrian - is already in net80211 btw), ax, ay, [[/WiFi|WiFi]] 6, %%WiGig%%, WPA3 (bz, adrian?)
  * %%GoLang%% on %%FreeBSD%% (seanc?)
  * More MSI-X Interrupts (There are devices that support more than 512!) (jhb)
  * %%NVMeOF%% initiator in kernel (vijay, vangyzen)
  * PCIE Gen 4 support (Intel to provide working support)
  * Non-static maxcpus/Hot plug CPUs in bhyve (rgrimes)
  * %%MultiQ%% for CAM (imp, scottl)
  * GEOM fault injection: DTrace/DWatch for storage failure injection (dexter, ctuffli?, Ash, dteske?, rpokala?)
  * useful data collection on running systems for data-driven decision making in the project, such as dmesg stats, pkg stats, etc (imp)
  * solution for kernel modules in ports (bdrewery)
    * "virtualbox" problem
    * per-release repos (e.g. 12.0, 12.1 vbox kmod)
  * (l,u)ni(x)corn
  * Tunable PCI-E Hot plug resource reservation (jhb)
  * Intel ISA-L integration for ARM (Andrew)
  * Build system improvements (brooks, bdrewery, imp) 

===== Want =====
  * ZFS Device disappearing hardening (allanjude/wca/Klara Systems)
  * Better support for ARM (32-bit/64-bit) with DDB - support all the registers - and remote GDB protocol (Juniper)
  * Suspend to disk/hibernate / resume from disk (SEP)
  * RTC_WAKE (bwidawsk)
  * Non-trash crypto framework (jhb,cem,gordon)
  * tcpdump-like tracing for CAM periph protocol traffic (imp,gnn)
  * make poudriere multinode capable - farm jobs out to multiple systems using a single backend store (ash, jt, shirkdog, bdrewery[it‘s really not that far off]
  * updated mount SMBFS smbv3 support (iXsystems)
  * awk improvements (GNUisms, date) (imp, dteske)
