Hi First of all, I know that most commiters or contributors contribute their work in their free time. I am not asking for any promise but I just want to discuss possible improvement for FreeBSD. OK, after using FreeBSD for some time, I would like to see FreeBSD have these features/improvements: 1) OpenLDAP Integration FreeBSD has OpenLDAP support in the ports, but I think it would be great if FreeBSD support LDAP out of the box (just like Solaris and most Linux distro) There are areas to improve: - nsswitch (it's in the ports) But it only support passwd and group now. - naming cache daemon (nscd) Without this one, the workstation will query the LDAP server everytime with just very simple command like ls. A lookupd is in the ports but it would be great if it is integrated and/or improved. 2) A stable software raid implementation To my knowledge, vinum is not very stable in 5.x. 3) Java improvement It seems that the development has been stopped after JDK 1.3.1/1.4.2 for a long time. Java performance in FreeBSD is not very good. 4) Some nice ports are broken in 5.x Like tripwire 2.3.1.2_3 Regards Patrick _________________________________________________________ 必殺技、飲歌、小星星... 浪漫鈴聲 情心連繫 http://us.rd.yahoo.com/evt=22281/*http://ringtone.yahoo.com.hk/Received on Thu Oct 28 2004 - 05:38:25 UTC
