+    <body>
+      <p>At the November 2013 &os; Vendor Summit, some of the work was
+	presented that Craig Rodrigues have been doing with Continuous
+	Integration and Testing at iXsystems.  Craig's presentation
+	described how iXsystems is using modern best practices for
+	building and testing FreeNAS code.  Jenkins is a framework for
+	doing continuous builds and integration, and is used by hundreds
+	of companies.  BHyve (BSD Hypvervisor) is the new virtual
+	machine system which will be part of &os; 10.  Webdriver is
+	a Python toolkit for testing web applications.  By combining
+	these technologies, iXsystems is developing a modern and
+	sophisticated workflow for testing and improving the quality of
+	FreeNAS.</p>
+
+      <p>Ed Maste from The &os; Foundation was interested in this work,
+	and based on this interest, now it is being ported to &os;.
+	Currently, a machine in the &os; cluster has been allocated for
+	this purpose, where a <tt>bhyve(4)</tt>-based virtual machine
+	was set up and Jenkins was installed.  The remainder is still in
+	progress.</p>
