Also, csup is available as a port now, so add a small note about that too. - Add a note about the development of Magic symlinks in Perforce. - New entry: Extract the partition and slice table editor from sysinstall. - New entry: Add some more information in the ktrace(1)/kdump(1) output. - New entry: Bring wi(4) up to par with the current state of affairs in the WLAN infrastructure. - New entry: Re-factor Apple Talk into a kernel module. - New entry: Move NIS/YP out of libc into a NSS module. - New entry: Move HESIOD out of libc into a NSS module. - New entry: Import NSS LDAP support into the base system. - New entry: Rewrite the in-kernel filesystem syncer and modernize the write behind code. - New entry: Add support for NO_* switches to "make delete-old". - Various wordsmithing and cleanups.
