Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Here's something I've been wondering about for a bit but I've never really gotten a straight answer. Currently I'm using 2.2.7-stable, however I just got a new larger drive and I want to install 3.0-beta and follow it through release and on into 3.0-stable if possible. Anyhow I've used cvsup a lot and I'm wondering once 3.0 is released, will there be a 3.0-stable? And does this mean that for a short time there will be a 3.0-stable and a 2.2-stable (till 2.2.8 is released). Or will the 3.0.X development still be called current? Mainly what I want to do is install 3.0-beta and keep up with the 3.0.x tree from there, preferably a the stable version if possible. Any ideas on how/where -stable is going to go? I'm sure I probably would be more well informed had I been around during the 1.0 to 2.0 transition. Any hints or insight would be appreciated. I'm subbed to the list so feel free to reply there if you think I'm not the only one wondering.TIA -Kris Zentner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
