Suggestions from DSA
So I don't forget, and for anyone else interested, here were some
suggestions recently from DSA when I asked how we could make life easier
for them.
Missing features / things to document better in the Wiki FAQ:
http://dsa.debian.org/ports/kfreebsd/
also pflogd was mentioned in the past, I may work on that.

Maybe virtio drivers improve things (in kfreebsd-10, also were added in
either 9.1 or 9.2 I think?). http://bigv.io/ may be a fun place to test
this (Bytemark provide+sponsor+host some of DSA's hardware).

ferm is interesting as it seems to provide a PF-like syntax to iptables
users ;)
