SCTP will be integrated into FreeBSD 7-current in the next few weeks.
After that and some stabilization period it will most likely be backported
to FreeBSD 6-stable to show up with FreeBSD 6.3 Release next year. It is
not planned to backport it to FreeBSD 5 as FreeBSD 6 is our maintained
stable for-production-use series.
You can find updated SCTP patches relative to FreeBSD 7-current on
http://www.sctp.org.
