"Maintenance" does not mean easy.  "Maintenance" means we're not
introducing anything new.  This list is all, or nearly all, things already
present in FreeBSD.

I'd like to have projects in DragonFly that are unique to DragonFly.  We
have a more flexible group of developers and a more straightforward code
base to deal with; this has already paid off for SMP development and Matt's
Hammer work.  We've got the space to accommodate new work.
