Before merging the + more than 115 individual changes into <tt>base/head</tt>, Ed + Maste and Edward Tomasz Napierala were able to help by + reviewing and improving the code quality.</p> + + <p>Work has begun on backporting these changes into &os; + 10-STABLE, with the current 10.2 release cycle in mind.
