+ September 15th is the scheduled date for entering BETA with the
+ 3.0-CURRENT tree. As all of you already (should) know, 3.0 is
+ scheduled for release on October 15th so this gives us a nice 30
+ day BETA period. During this time, I don't expect anyone to drop
+ in significant new work or otherwise perturb the 3.0-CURRENT tree
+ in such a way that violates the general idea of a BETA (you're
+ supposed to test what you have, not move the goalposts every
+ couple of days :).</p></li>
+
+ <li><p><b>13-Sep-98</b>
+ After more than a year of development, the Common Access Method
+ SCSI layer for FreeBSD will be integrated into 3.0-CURRENT on
+ Sunday, September 13th. The CAM development team is currently
+ busy ensuring that the integration process goes as smoothly as
+ possible, so please understand that we may be slow to respond to
+ questions about CAM during that time.</p></li>
