 1.  Keyboard multiplexer.  We are running into problems with making
 ps/2 and USB/bluetooth keyboards work together and work with KVMs.
 Having a virtual keyboard device that multiplexes the various real
 keyboard devices and handles hotplug can solve this mess pretty
 effectively.  I know that there has been a lot of talk about this on
 mailing lists recently but I don't know how much progress is being made
 so I'm listing it here.

   How about reuse NetBSD's wscons ? I've kept an eye on it and thought
it should be a good start for FreeBSD.

  Count me in, I know there was a folk(maybe  j...@csie.nctu.edu.tw) had
  hacked the source under http://wing-yee.ntc.keio.ac.jp/hosokawa/FreeBSD-boot/
  and make 2.2.5-RELEASE have a chinese boot.flp. But jdli seems to have
  no free time to spend on this anymore :  I think I can take it.
