Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk I would suggest after the release a point release method be developed to allow (perhaps as a port type package?) The ability to download/apply critical fixes quickly. Simply put, having to track the entire -stable source to get bugfixes on the CD-ROM is not desirable. -ahd- -- Drew Derbyshire UUPC/extended e-mail: software@kew.com Telephone: 617-279-9812 Bring back ROSCOE release 4.1!
