As we are now in October, = and I think the system is the greatest to be developed, I am curious to see i= f 4 9 has been labelled (if that's the right word) as 4.9-STABLE, as I have r= ead that when a release (as in 4.8 / 4.9 not in -RELEASE) becomes -STABLE, th= at is the time top fire up cvsup and make/buildworld. As I had mentioned in = my earlier communication, I found some nice suprises when I upgraded from 4.= 7 to 4.8, (just happened to start on a 4.7 disc, then cvsup to 4.8), and am looking forward to seeing what 4.9 might bring. So, I was wondering if anybody knew anything about 4.9-STABLE. :)=0D =0D Regards=0D Andrew Kozak=0D =0D -------Original Message-------=0D =0D From: Kevin D.
