Things I am working on are:

• A working low level USB floppy format function.
• instability issues with I/O to USB floppy drives: system hangs when running newfs <USB_FLOPPY_DRIVE>
• Inability to mount root filesystem from a USB HDD under certain circumstances, e.g. other devices need to be plugged in to boot off a USB HDD.
• Various ports are confused between MIT and base system (Heimdal) Kerberos libraries.
• ZFS Tuning on small memory hardware. See ZFSTuningGuide.
• Porting AdvFS to FreeBSD

Ports todos:

• A number of screen port fix-ups.
• security/krb5 linking issues.
• New ipfilter port
• New xascii port
• New xplaces port

Other:

• Extended the life of an old firewall/gateway machine (with six PIC slots, five NIC cards). As IDE drives are difficult to find, replace the drive with a SATA drive attached to SD-SATA2-4IR controller (SIL3124 chipset – siis(4)). Works well, even boots off it.
