Agreed...If it just said -REL_ENG it would be fine, wouldnt it? Except that doesnt stable turn INTO REL_ENG in/during/around the prerelease code freeze? maybe -RELEASE-1 -RELEASE-2 for each update that hits REL_ENG? or even -RELEASE-yearmonthday ala -STABLE? I suppose the later would make more sense... ....david --- david raistrick (deep in the south georgia woods) drais@atlasta.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
