Since FreeBSD 6.4 is the last remaining supported release from the FreeBSD 6.x stable branch, support for the FreeBSD 6.x stable branch will also cease at the same point. Users of either of these FreeBSD releases are strongly encouraged to upgrade to either FreeBSD 7.3 or FreeBSD 8.1 before that date. The FreeBSD Ports Management Team wishes to remind users that November 30 is also the end of support for the Ports Collection for both FreeBSD 6.4 RELEASE and the FreeBSD 6.x STABLE branch. Neither the infrastructure nor individual ports are guaranteed to work on these FreeBSD versions after that date. A CVS tag will be created for users who cannot upgrade for some reason, at which time these users are advised to stop tracking the latest ports CVS repository and use the RELEASE_6_EOL tag instead. The current supported branches and expected EoL dates are: +---------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Branch | Release | Type | Release date | Estimated EoL | |-----------+------------+--------+-----------------+-----------------| |RELENG_6 |n/a |n/a |n/a |November 30, 2010| |---------------------------------------------------------------------| |RELENG_6_4 |6.4-RELEASE |Extended|November 18, 2008|November 30, 2010| |---------------------------------------------------------------------| |RELENG_7 |n/a |n/a |n/a |last release + 2y| |-----------+------------+--------+-----------------+-----------------| |RELENG_7_1 |7.1-RELEASE |Extended|January 4, 2009 |January 31, 2011 | |-----------+------------+--------+-----------------+-----------------| |RELENG_7_3 |7.3-RELEASE |Extended|March 23, 2010 |March 31, 2012 | |-----------+------------+--------+-----------------+-----------------| |RELENG_8 |n/a |n/a |n/a |last release + 2y| |-----------+------------+--------+-----------------+-----------------| |RELENG_8_0 |8.0-RELEASE |Normal |November 25, 2009|November 30, 2010| |-----------+------------+--------+-----------------+-----------------| |RELENG_8_1 |8.1-RELEASE |Extended|July 23, 2010 |July 31, 2012 | +---------------------------------------------------------------------+ - -- Colin Percival Security Officer, FreeBSD | freebsd.org | The power to serve Founder / author, Tarsnap | tarsnap.com | Online backups for the truly paranoid -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkx+cgYACgkQFdaIBMps37LW3gCeN0AtYOXEBZZtdHr7W56cC4MW 6dcAn3wMxPfyuxG5KFJMtTh749dBzgxa =uzJQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From owner-freebsd-announce@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Sep 1 23:51:43 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-announce@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DD83310656D2 for ; Wed, 1 Sep 2010 23:51:43 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from matt@ixsystems.com) Received: from mail.iXsystems.com (newknight.ixsystems.com [206.40.55.70]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6F0B98FC12 for ; Wed, 1 Sep 2010 23:51:43 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mail.ixsystems.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by mail.iXsystems.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5B98AA6645C for ; Wed, 1 Sep 2010 16:51:42 -0700 (PDT) Received: from mail.iXsystems.com ([127.0.0.1]) by mail.ixsystems.com (mail.ixsystems.com [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-maia, port 10024) with ESMTP id 86592-06; Wed, 1 Sep 2010 16:51:41 -0700 (PDT) Received: from irchost.ixsystems.com (colo1.ixsystems.com [74.119.236.130]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by mail.iXsystems.com (Postfix) with ESMTPSA id 9D397A66402; Wed, 1 Sep 2010 16:51:41 -0700 (PDT) Date: Wed, 1 Sep 2010 18:51:40 -0500 From: Matt Olander To: freebsd-announce@freebsd.org Message-ID: <20100901235139.GA21281@irchost.ixsystems.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.20 (2009-06-14) X-Languages: en X-Mailman-Approved-At: Thu, 02 Sep 2010 02:11:38 +0000 Subject: [FreeBSD-Announce] MeetBSD California 2010 X-BeenThere: freebsd-announce@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: "Project Announcements \[moderated\]" List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 01 Sep 2010 23:51:43 -0000 It is time again for MeetBSD California! What: MeetBSD California http://www.meetbsd.com/ When: November 5th-6th, 2010 Where: Mountain View, California, USA Overview Join other members of the BSD community November 5th and 6th (Fri. & Sat.) for an amazing opportunity to learn and share BSD wisdom. Come enjoy and engage your contemporaries in the BSD world at MeetBSD California's unconference of targeted discussions. MeetBSD CA 2010 features a community-driven discussion format that gives great minds from the BSD and open source communities the opportunity to share ideas. Discussions in the form of breakout sessions will provide a forum for a variety of open source development topics. Lightning talks will allow attendees to share the status of their BSD projects quickly with other community members, while stimulating conversation. A handful of selected speakers will also take part in the event, delivering information on a number of BSD platforms. MeetBSD CA '10 will feature an afterparty on Saturday night to give attendees a more relaxed environment to discuss and recount the topics of the unconference. The afterparty will feature drinks, food, and good company to keep the conversations going strong into the night. Both MeetBSD CA 2010 and the afterparty will be held at Hacker Dojo in the San Francisco Bay Area.
