+      <p>The <tt>ix</tt> and <tt>ixv</tt> network interface drivers
+	support a variety of Intel network interfaces, with line
+	speeds at 10 Gbit/second.</p>
+
+      <p>This quarter, with the help of Matt Macy and Sean Bruno (among
+	others), we've submitted a review in Phabricator for the
+	conversion of the <tt>ixgbe</tt> driver to use the new (and evolving)
+	<tt>iflib</tt> interface.</p>
+
+      <p>Stay tuned for the conversion of the 40G driver
+	(<tt>ixl</tt>) as it is currently being ported to use
+	<tt>iflib</tt>.</p>
