Excellent advice :-) To the original poster: The place to look for information about supported releases, the latest release versions, planned release life-time and support cycles, etc. is the FreeBSD web site. If you haven't already found the relevant pages, please visit http://www.freebsd.org/releases/ and have a look around.
