The second test release of the miru directory server is available. This version has moved from the FreeNAS core to FreeSBIE 2 as used in pfSense. All support code has also been uploaded to subversion. Details how to reproduce this image are appearing in the HOWTO: Build from SVN once Novell have fixed the image thumbnails.
Bugzilla is not functional at the moment but plenty of work is required to make a release that can be used in any environment. This means being able to install onto a hard disk (HDD) or compact flash (CF) from booting the CD-ROM image or writing a disk image directly. The milestone after that will be ensuring that the disk image works correctly on the PC Engines WRAP, the primary install platform.
Technical improvements over the current pfSense core should also appear shortly, starting with a private configuration file and then progressing to the concept of a runtime configuration. This will allow the administrator to test a different running configuration of the device and not have it written to disk.
