Well that is always the question isnt it? I'd be willing to try to install
it, I'm not sure of it's compatibility with bsd, but we might be able to get
Tim Purdue to help us out. The problem is I'm pretty loaded up now, so it
seems tough to believe I would have time to maintain it...course maybe it
doesn't need a lot of maintainance... I'm guessing it needs to live on its
own vm for all the reasons gborg needs to be on its own.
