11 FreeBSD Architecture Handbook now available

The nascent FreeBSD Architecture Handbook is now available online for users who would like to know more about FreeBSD kernel internals. Much of the material has been split out from the Developers' Handbook, which now focuses exclusively on userland programming in FreeBSD. Both volumes are works in progress.

9 PAE support merged for upcoming FreeBSD 4.9

Luoqi Chen has begun the process of merging PAE support from FreeBSD 5 to FreeBSD 4-STABLE. The PAE support allows FreeBSD machines to make use of more than 4 gigabytes of RAM. This functionality was originally written by Jake Burkholder under contract with DARPA and Network Associates Laboratories. Additional changes for individual device drivers will follow in the coming weeks.

Concerned parties that are willing to work toward improving the performance of FreeBSD are highly encouraged to subscribe to this list. This is a highly technical list ideally suited for experienced FreeBSD users, hackers, or administrators interested in keeping FreeBSD fast, robust, and scalable. To subscribe, please visit the freebsd-performance@ web interface.

8 FreeBSD.org mailing lists use Mailman

It is now possible to browse through the authoritative list of mailing lists by heading over to http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo or by browsing through the handbook's section on mailing lists. A big thanks to Peter Wemm is in order for spending the time to seamlessly convert the various lists over to Mailman, thank you.
