Hi,

the release schedule information available in
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/7.1R/schedule.html
is outdated.

You probably already know about this ... and
I also know 7.1-RELEASE is delayed, but the schedule page does not
provide any useful information on what's going to happen next. BETA2
has already passed but it has not been mentioned in this document.

The front page for the project (www.freebsd.org) links to
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/7.1/
with the text 'Upcoming Release 7.1 - BETA2'
(but BETA2 is not mentioned in schedule.html)

If you navigate to the FTP site using that link now, you'll find that
the images for the RC1 are already available (Dec 7th). But the
'actual' dates for the RC1 builds are missing from schedule.html.

I'm not familiar with the docproj procedures, but have tried to help
by editing the release.ent and schedule.sgml files (patches attached),
which looked as the obvious candidates to me. If someone can check
them, complete the missing dates in schedule.sgml, and commit the
changes, that would be great!

Cheers,
