You got to love the way they write the release announcements:
“Gee. Did we really implement that new interface that way? That needs a bit more work.”
So, it’s now the last few legs of the release cycle, and I’m looking forward to it.
DO read the release announcement or /usr/src/UPDATING, specialy if you currently have a system that uses the em(4) driver (Intel E1000 NIC), it might change with this release, to igb(4).

And to stay fully in sequence with the “Gee…” bit:
“Gee, did I *really* write /etc/source/UPDATING, instead of /usr/src/UPDATING?
it’s the 7.1 ghost, out to get ya’ll
