The FTP server is back online. 45GB of data copied. I've also posted the new snapshot for i386 tonight. Mirmon is now getting updated again with FTP history. Most sites haven't tried to sync for a week. Of course there was nothing to sync. I'm going to verify that rsync is working properly tomorrow. A few CGI scripts and portions of the site including viewvc and the wiki are still down. cvsupd is also not operational due to problems on amd64. (i switched architectures in the move) Once the port is fixed, I'll get it back online. Patches are welcome to speed up the process: The news script should be rotating again on midnightbsd.org.
I'm pleased to announce a new i386 snapshot for MidnightBSD. This is the first snap in some time and a big improvement over our previous snapshot. It does not contain mports, but is a fully functioning installer. I've tested it on VMWare Fusion with great success. This version includes this weekends work on ata(4), re(4), and rl(4). I'm going to upload it as soon as the FTP is in place.
I'm developing FreeNAS under a QEMU virtual PC under my professionnal laptop (under Windows XP). This documentation explain how to install QEMU, the KQEMU accelator and installing FreeNAS. For using QEMU, I need only one SSH access, then I will use the simple « user net » mode.

Seen via email and Hubert Feyrer’s blog: There’s a NetBSD hackathon planned for February 19th through the 22nd. The meetup is via IRC. Since it’s NetBSD, it’ll include pkgsrc, and if it includes pkgsrc, it affects DragonFly. If you’re interested, show up – even being there to report on packages that compile or don’t (on DragonFly) would help.
I've made several changes to the Apache 2.2 port. mod_proxy_connect should now work properly and scgi has been added to the list. I've also added support for BDB 4.x
