Sounds good; it feels like a good time for a new release. (Perhaps biased; I'm keen for the kfreebsd d-i Beta 1 images to go away so that people are only testing new ones. that work.) > So I think I'll try and achieve that as > soon as linux 3.16 reaches testing (it was just uploaded to unstable, > and FTBFSes on several architectures, so not this week ;)). We'd be ready for kfreebsd 10.1 to go into unstable, but won't do this unless there's an ACK/NAK from release team in #760114, and also working around the schedule of any upcoming d-i release. If this did go ahead, only the version and ABI number need updating in debian-installer; I've been doing all of my d-i testing with kfreebsd 10.1 udebs and I think it is absolutely ready. (Preferred, in fact, because it fixes known issues like #755739). > If you have possibly disruptive patches/updates pending, it would be > nice to either communicate on the topic, or delay these until after the > release.

I'd like to revert some of the problematic ZFS-on-Linux changes from partman-zfs (a kfreebsd-specific udeb), to restore the original behaviour we had in wheezy. I'll try to get this done in plenty of time for Beta 2. > [ I'm adding -bsd@ to the loop explicitly since there was quite some > work lately (thanks to Steven who stepped up and quickly sent a fair > number of patches), and I'd rather avoid forgetting/not knowing about > some extra patches. ] Thanks :) All patches for the kfreebsd d-i Beta 2 errata got uploaded. There is only the #757986 "inappropriate ioctl for device" prompt, that we could try to fix before Beta 2 *if* there is time after the above. Regards, -- Steven Chamberlain steven@pyro.eu.org
