Dear DragonFlyBSD bugs, In your handbook, under the "13. Security" heading, and then the "4. DES, MD5 and Crypt" sub-heading, the handbook states: 
 "By default DragonFly uses MD5 to encrypt passwords. ". But that statement is no longer true, since there was a Google-Code-In (Dec 2010 ?) project to alter thedefault encryption of passwords to use SHA256.
 -- Also, there is a typographical error on: http://www.dragonflybsd.org/features/ Sub-heading:
 DMA - DragonFly Mail Agent, "...mail delivery and simply remote mail transfers..." Presumably "simply" shoud be "simple".
-- Sincerely,Robin Carey
