Hello All.

The subject asks it all. Sorry if this is off-topic.

One other Q, as long as I'm posting: For those releases that have both a
RELENG_X_Y and a RELENG_X_Y_BP branch, what's the difference? AFAIK, the
first is for bug fixes; what's the second for?

Well, now one more: What are RELENG_X and RELENG_X_BP as they relate to
RELENG_X_Y and RELENG_X_Y_BP?

I'm rifling through CVS to see if the patchfiles I'm offering on the
FreeBSD Backports site are applicable to many releases (some are, I've
discovered), and I want to make sure I understand the meaning of these
CVS branches.

Thanks,
Dave
