--=-SCfjxtH7Ywwi/LGyXxeu Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable As we progress through the release of 6.0 some more package trees will wind up coming online so I'm trying to remove some of the older ones. The secteam still supports 5.3-RELEASE so totally removing that isn't possible at this point. But there is general agreement we don't need to keep the whole package tree online, just the pieces that help towards making a clean basic install. So... Today I did this: 1) Copied all of the 5.3 Release related bits to the FreeBSD-Archive site. 2) On ftp-master I removed the releases/5.3-RELEASE/packages symbolic link, and replaced that with the packages/ directory that was on disc1 of the release ISO. This is much much smaller than the full-blown release package tree. I'll let things settle in this state until Wednesday, at which point I will remove the packages-5.3-release tree from the ports area. Those of you who sync specific pieces of the tree instead of the whole thing and/or those of you who try to archive the older release bits might have some adjustments to make. If there are any problems or questions let me know.
