whois didn't give me human traceable info first time, (maybe servers were 
reconfiguring, or there was a net problem, then I couldnt get any human info 
re. domain from other tools, just just the dotster block.

Thanks to those who told me of `host` command (I'd only used
`nslookup`, `whois` & http://www.dnsreport.com, (& hadn't used `dig`)).

Thanks to those who confirmed Matthew Dillon's announcement is real.   

Matthew, 
OK, you want a divergent kernel, EG src/sys/ ,  fair enough.

  - Are there any benefits to the BSD community in having
    a 4th BSD bin/ sbin/ usr.bin/ usr.sbin/ ?
    Can you not share & co-operate with toolset maintainers of NetBSD
    or OpenBSD, even if you can't work with some FreeBSD CVS people ?      
  - Do you intend your own ports/ collection too ? (or  Free, Net or Open ?)
