And congratulations and thanks to the entire FreeBSD release engineering
team and the contributors. It's a .0 release, but my experience with it
through the release cycle has been excellent. I especially appreciate the
new USB stack which has fixed all sorts of annoying issues (and a couple
that were a lot more than annoying) in the old stack.

Great job!
