Installed RT bugraq/ticketing system for our developers. Seems to work as good as it does for our support team.

Another step to the victory with Unicode support in both X and console. Today I’ve managed to fix the pseudographics (think mc) in console. It looks much better now. Even displays russian characters in mutt. Does not let me input them yet, though. Most updated /etc/sysconfig/i18n looks like this now:

LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8
LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_LOCALE=ru_RU.utf8
LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.utf8
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8
SYSFONT=ruscii_8x16

One of my collegues convinced me to install FreeBSD on one of our test machines (workstation type of thing). Didn’t manage to dig deep down yet, but first impression was rather negative (installation, first steps).

Wish you all the best, and love you!
