Hi,

I have:
$ uname -r
8.1-RELEASE
installed.

I understand the concept of software dev, and RELEASE (a snapshot in time),
and CURRENT as a dev branch, and STABLE as a dev branch followed CURRENT.
But I have difficulty placing them in a dev and respository tree.

For example, in my case, can I describe it as below
8.1-RELEASE -> 8.2-CURRENT -> 8.2-STABLE -> 8.2-RCn -> 8.2-RELEASE
and the cycle repeats ?

JB
