I am just wondering if it is just > me, or have things gotten just a little sloppy? I have wondered the same thing after reading all the security advisories concerning the 4.5-RELEASE networking code, an area of the BSDs that is otherwise well-known for its great track record... I used to depend on -RELEASEs for production machines and only tracked -STABLE when it was necessary, but right now I'm happy that my upgrade plan for this month already was to bring all machines to -STABLE. Maybe the FreeBSD developer community has been under pressure a bit too much as a result of the big changes in the last year, who knows... I'll stick around for 5.0 anyway. Hopefully my C will be on par to help out a bit. :) -- Walter Hop <walter@binity.com> | +31 6 24452020 | PGP keyid 0x84813998 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
