Dear guys, thank you for your support. At the moment I have not time to spend on FreeSBIE because I'm working on the thesis for my M.Sc. I think FreeSBIE was a succesful project and can even be improved in the future. If anyone has any suggestions, I ask him to send them here, please (patches are really appreciated). I have no time to work on it now, but in the future..who knows. =) Thank you again Best regards -- Matteo Riondato FreeBSD Committer (http://www.freebsd.org) G.U.F.I.
