As you know, the Production User calls* have identified real-world 
production needs and coordinated funding for new features for inclusion 
in base, that were either greenfield or abandoned via GSoC and other 
efforts.

We currently have a developer available to assess and selectively 
implement some very-specific projects of various sizes:

* A feature audit of bhyve on FreeBSD and illumos
* Platform spoofing, for lack of a better term, allowing bhyve appear to 
be another hypervisor such as KVM
* An EDK2 Update
* Port SeaBIOS to bhyve
* Revive the UPB libvdsk code
* Revive the para-virtualized clock code

Are you open to our formalizing some of these and establishing a funding 
mechanism with the EWG and Foundation?

All the best,

Michael Dexter
