kneitinger please, would you like to say a few words here?

Or should we await the next FreeBSD status report?

Thanks

beadm in base

Should beadm be included by default in FreeBSD ZFS installs?

2017-07-25 in IRC:

… (and there's a GSOC project to build a BSD-licensed tool similar to beadm, which can be included in base).

Interesting... to my eye beadm looks to already be BSD-licensed. (Indeed, pkg info beadm reports BSD2CLAUSE, so not just to my eye, then.)

Regardless, it will be interesting to see where this goes.

Briefly (without me trawling logs of IRC, and so on): if I recall correctly, the motivations for this novelty were primarily technical; not license-oriented.
