September 2013. This is the third of four reports planned for
2013.</p>
<!-- XXX: introduction goes here -->
<p>We have had another very active three months in the &os; world,
including two Developer Summits (BSDCam and EuroBSDcon) that will be
covered in separate status reports. &os; continues to push hard
on security, with improvements to both the performance and
reliability of the random number generation, and more
compartmentalisation in programs in the base system. For
developers, there is work on a new modern debugger. There is also
a significant amount of of modernization in the support for
Objective-C and Ada via ports, making &os; a first-rate platform
for developing in either language, in addition to the existing
C++11 and C11 support already present in the base system. Server
users will be pleased to see improvements in the iSCSI stack and
scalability allowing over a million I/O operations per second on
commodify hardware, while desktop users will see improvements in X
support for new GPUs and for possible X replacements.</p>
<p>Thanks to all the reporters for the excellent work! This report
contains 30 entries and we hope you enjoy reading it.</p>
