I suppose updating the Wiki would be a useful start for those changes between FR 2.x and FR 3.0 (for example, eap.conf no longer exists, its functionality has moved to the eap module). Little things that newbies (I'm one) would miss out on, would be very helpful... I was also wondering whether RHEL 7 will have FR 3 in it or whether it'll be 2.2.0 (that's what Fedora 17 has and that's where I got my FR 2.2 source from for my own FR 2.2.0 RPM spin). I definitely need to get myself a Github account so I can help more. S.
i.e. v3 has less code than v2, and does more.
:-) I agree...but those with established 2.x servers and not much knowledge of how things work arent going to have a nice smooth upgrade - there is no 'upgrade tool' to help make the move. What is RedHst et als view of the new major release? will we see FR3 in RHEL 7 - or in 8 or 9? (look at the slow 1.x -> 2.x transitions in most distros)
