In doing a cursory check of the releases since 1.0, I didn't find the actual source files from most of the ftp sites. What I'm getting at is this, If it were required to replicate an OS environment level I was working on 1995 for some engineering project(some exact FreeBSD release date for instance), could I rebuild that release I had from your ftp sources or sites? In using the Concurrent Version System (CVS) wouldn't I be destroying the engineering design of my own system by using CVS? I would think the liabilities would be difficult to substantiate if a business transaction or engineering design failed due to a fault? I'm just interested in knowing how business continuation operates within the framework of CVS. --Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
