Due to a communications mix-up, it isn't yet possible to upgrade to 7.0-BETA3
using FreeBSD Update -- the bits are being assembled as I type this and binary
upgrading to 7.0-BETA3 should work by the end of the day.

For those of you who didn't read my earlier announcement and have no idea what
I'm talking about, upgrading instructions are at
  http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2007-11-11-freebsd-major-version-upgrade.html
for upgrading from 6.x to 7.0-BETA3, and at
  http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2007-11-10-freebsd-minor-version-upgrade.html
for upgrading from 7.0-BETA1.5 or 7.0-BETA2 to 7.0-BETA3.
