Dear FreeBSD Community,

The FreeBSD Foundation is pleased to announce continued funding of the 
network stack virtualization project, made possible by a grant from 
NLNet.  The virtualized network stack will significantly enhance 
FreeBSD's jail functionality, allowing jails to have their own complete 
and locally administered network stacks, including firewalls, routing, 
and IPsec configurations. The Foundation will be sponsoring Bjoern Zeeb, 
a FreeBSD network developer, to enhance the existing prototype, now 
being merged into FreeBSD 8.x, as well as provide code review.

Sincerely,

The FreeBSD Foundation
