Hi, I recently sent this to freebsd-isp, but there weren't many takers;
anyone here have any feelings on this one, and might hackers be
appropriate, or no?

Thanks

Subject: News server, 2.1.6.1 vs 2.2

I'm about to start building a new news server, and I'm kind of in the dark
about which version of FBSD to go with.  We have about 5 machines running
2.1.6 now, and it's been very stable and predictable.  But I'm a bit
curious if any of the recent enhancements in 2.2 would make it worth the
risk (how much of a risk?) for a bit more speed and some additional
features.

Hardware so far consists of:

ASUS P55T2P4 w/133 Pentium 128M 
Adaptec 2940
Adaptec 3940
16 2G drives
DEC DE500-XA 10/100 Ethernet card

Any thoughts?  Anyone else running 2.2 on a news server?

Charles
