RELENG_5_3 is considered ``errata branch'' so if there is some serious issues then some of us may request an errata candidate to re@ and there may be an ``errata advisory''. Generally speaking, I don't think there will be a 5.3.1-RELEASE. Would you please explain what are these ``glitches'' and ``performance issues''? Are they believed to have been fixed in recent -CURRENT? > Would anyone else besides me like to see a 5.3.1 minor release=20 > sometime around, say, February? Maybe 5.4? =3D-) The 5-STABLE ABI has been frozen so you would not have to fear of a new 5-STABLE release :-) Cheers, --=20 Xin LI http://www.delphij.net/ See complete headers for GPG key and other information. --HlL+5n6rz5pIUxbD Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBxRRc/cVsHxFZiIoRAnwxAKCF4VkZX4TBvN8wwYL03cfHWBh8NACfXZrW F8/RiwKEV9RmbESiRFbszzE= =7/Or -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --HlL+5n6rz5pIUxbD--
