Hi all,

Looks like Matt did it again. Another Slashdot article 
http://bsd.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/02/02/1858251!
"There is an interesting interview with Matt Dillon regarding the current 
status and future of DragonFlyBSD. In it he compares the difference between 
serializing tokens and the mutex model (a nice contrast to the previously 
posted Scott Long SMPng interview). He also describes the work being done in 
the VFS, along with his plans for Journaling, SSI Clustering, packaging, and 
more."

The interview it links to is on bsdnexus (Jan 31st) 
http://forums.bsdnexus.com/viewtopic.php?p=3232 and provides some more 
explanation on tokens vs. mutexes, VFS and Journaling.
