Announcing FreeSBIE GMV

All,
	I want to inform you that a new FreeSBIE image goes public today.
This image is *not* an official FreeSBIE image released by the
FreeSBIE Staff, but a non-official, possibly bugged and unstable
FreeSBIE image released by me.

This image is *not* FreeSBIE 2.0. Its codename is GMV, which stands
for Gian Maria Volonte', an Italian actor that played in movies as "A
fistful of dollars" and "For a few dollars more". 

FreeSBIE GMV is based on FreeBSD 7-CURRENT as of 2006.08.09.00.00.00
UTC, with ports from the same date and time. FreeBSD HEAD branch was
chosen because all my machines run it. Feel free to use my
configuration to build a 6.1-STABLE image.

FreeSBIE GMV is oriented to security and rescue and recovery. If you
think that some important software is missing, feel free to contact
me. I already know that vim and dsniff are missing and am sorry for
that, but these ports didn't compile on August 9th 2006. 
The list of included software can be found at the bottom of this
announcement.

What I want from you is feedback, as FreeSBIE GMV can be seen as an
important step towards FreeSBIE 2.0, but please don't see FreeSBIE GMV
as FreeSBIE 2.0-PRERELEASE, nor -BETA. You're strongly encouraged to
send me feedback about our plugins, feedback about included software,
feedback about software configuration. I will try to reply to every
mail you'll send to me at [email protected] .
Please specify [FreeSBIE GMV] in the subject of the mail.

FreeSBIE GMV can be downloaded from:
http://people.freebsd.org/~matteo/GMV/FreeSBIE-GVM-20060809.iso
A mirror will be much appreciated. 

The MD5 sum for the ISO image is:
MD5 (FreeSBIE-GMV-20060809.iso) = 9aa45a3d5a2b5efcb7ee2fd242ad80c2
