+===== Notes =====
+==== ctf/debugging ====
+  * Create wrappers around cc and ld to run ctfconvert and ctfmerge, so they don't need to be called after.  This should get ctf data for ports.
+  * Look at mdb (porting)
+  * Look at adding support to print ine numbers in ddb.
+  * libdwarf and libctf will continue to live together until a decision about which to go w/, and address the fact that in kernel dwarf is too large.
+  * It would be good to unify backtrace format between arches in ddb.
+  * The usual debugging over USB or ethernet, just needs to be done.
+  * Talked briefly about using libctf for ABI interface between kernel and userland.  This may be Daniel Lovasko's %%GSoC%% this year.
+  * There is large amounts of improvements to be made to bhyve gdb, such as stopping cpus while waiting for commands, and sending complete gdb commands instead of a character at a time.
