If you wait about 5 weeks, Louisa Luciani's Summer of Code project is focused on creating a LiveCD with a desktop environment; that may be even more interesting.

Re: HAMMER Update - 16-July-2008
I wish someone in FreeBSD-land would get around to doing that sort of thing. Regardless of filesystem. They claim the USB-removal panics are fixed in 8-CURRENT, but at least one person claimed this month that he still sees the panics; I'm not sure I want to experiment. Anyway, I'm seriously considering DragonFly for a new machine, which I think I should get in around a month. Will at least give the livecd a spin. Rahul

http://pkgbox.dragonflybsd.org/packages/DragonFly-2.0/pkgsrc-2008Q2/ is now full of binary packages. There's some older and newer packages in there, and a good chunk of them were built very recently on 1.13, so there will be a harmless version warning when installed. However, as soon as the full bulk build I'm running completes, the new 2.0 packages will be installed, and all out of date ones removed. So we are covered for binary installs at time of release if the pbulk build ...
