FreeBSD 8-STABLE now supports GCD, libdispatch port updated
Dear all: Just an FYI that all the parts are now in place to use GCD (libdispatch) on FreeBSD 8-STABLE. You will need the following: - FreeBSD 8-STABLE snapshot from at least 2009-11-01 (r198732) - FreeBSD libdispatch port from at least 2009-11-11 Do the upgrade to the 8-STABLE snapshot first so that the port can find the required kernel features. As a reminder, you can find FreeBSD/GCD port status, quick start guide, and general information here: http://wiki.freebsd.org/GCD I have updated it to reflect 8.x support. Thanks are due to Stacey Son and Stanislav Sedov for their work to make this happen! Robert N M Watson Computer Laboratory University of Cambridge

I have created a QEMU/KVM virtual machine containing FreeBSD 8-STABLE as of 11/11/09. This includes the kqueue bits to support libdispatch. If anyone is interested, you can download it from here: http://vala.recvmail.org/vm
