I guess I should have said "ported to FreeBSD". The changes have been
submitted to the netatalk maintainers who plan to support FreeBSD in
future releases.
Note: netatalk runs within kernel space not user space. Thus, it should
be superior to CAP with respect to performance over a network. CAP is
reported to have a few more bells and whistles.
