We recap vBSDcon, give you the story behind a PF EN, reminisce in Solaris memories, and show you how to configure different DEs on FreeBSD. This episode was brought to you by Headlines [vBSDCon] vBSDCon was held September 7 - 9th. We recorded this only a few days after getting home from this great event. Things started on Wednesday night, as attendees of the thursday developer summit arrived and broke into smallish groups for disorganized dinner and drinks. We then held an unofficial hacker lounge in a medium sized seating area, working and talking until we all decided that the developer summit started awfully early tomorrow. The developer summit started with a light breakfast and then then we dove right in Ed Maste started us off, and then Glen Barber gave a presentation about lessons learned from the 11.1-RELEASE cycle, and comparing it to previous releases. 11.1 was released on time, and was one of the best releases so far.
