<li><p><b>15-Sep-98</b> 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>
<p></p></li>

Method SCSI layer for FreeBSD will be integrated into

goes as smoothly as possible, so please understand that we may
be slow to respond to questions about CAM in the days.</p>
