OK Ken Smith already made it public in the CVS entries already, but FreeBSD 7.0 BETA-1 is available (my own machine: FreeBSD guardian.elvandar.org 7.0-BETA1 FreeBSD 7.0-BETA1 #9: Tue Oct 23 14:10:01 CEST 2007 root@guardian.elvandar.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GUARDIAN amd64) and you should really test this the soon you can.. the sooner the better, we count on you all to get a very good major release again. A lot of shiny new features as well as much improved stability had been added to the system which you really want to test 
In the mean time 6.3 preparations are also started which is a much improved version of 6.2-RELEASE (ofcourse), but the cool things are in 7.0mmkay?
update: 27/10: You can find the ISO files required for testing here

Today I went to my home-cafe “The Breakaway” in Rotterdam to meet with old collegue’s. Reason for this is that Ivo (my old-teamcoordinator, someone I learned a lot from, and visa versa as far as he told me ;-)) is leaving the ING real soon now to restart a former career. Ofcourse I wish him all the luck and best he can use to restart it and continue it afterwards. Personally I think it is the right choice for him :-).
BUT beyond that I also met a lot of old co-workers, people I didn’t speak for ages because “E_NOTIME” things etc. We all spoke a bit and exchanged contact-cards etc. which was a nice thing to do because we can now keep in touch again.
Ivo I know you read this at some point, thanks for the invitation, it was a really nice evening which I enjoyed a lot (more then I thought before arriving).
So another successive night
