The major thing to change in 5.0-current is enhanced multiprocessor (SMP) support. Of course there are other changes, read about them here: http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/release/texts/i386/RELNOTES.TXT?rev=HEAD Note that the first sentence, This is a 5.0-CURRENT release SNAPshot of FreeBSD, an active development branch which will produce its first release in early March 2001. does not mean 5.0-RELEASE will be out in March 2001. Clearly it wasn't.
