People were amply warned about 3.0, which was kinda buggy, so I would steer clear of 4.0 for production/important-to-be-up-all-the-time systems. Whether or not 4.0 gets the STABLE name upon release is something I don't know. dannyman wrote: > i remember once a wizened senior admin telling me that the 3.0-RELEASE wasn't > going to be STABLE, that .0 RELEASE is like an interim RELEASE and that it > takes up the STABLE flag at .1 or something. > > was this wizened senior admin a crack smoker citing some ancient, obsoleted > wisdom, or would it behove me to stick with 3.x for the initial 4.0-RELEASE? > > is this in a FAQ somewhere? > > thanks. > > -d > -- - Peter Schwenk - schwenk@voicenet.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
