Could someone point me to a resource that outlines the expected supported lifetime of all the branches? Can't find anything concrete on the webpage. I'm developing a product, which i hope will run on FreeBSD. However the rapid development of 5, and now 6 arriving out in a few months has me worried if FreeBSD will be the right choice short and long term. I have even considered using 4.11 for its stability and speed on single processor systems, but I'm worried that some ports/hw will not be supported. The recent amount of problems with 5 has me a little discouraged too, and even considering Linux as an alternative. Hopefully that wont be the case, but a clear outline of whats to come would be very helpful in the decision making. Thanks.
