--nextPart1552936.8n2QSSpe14 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" While doing some maintenance work on the svn->cvs exporter last week, I= t was=20 discovered that its staging areas had been corrupted again. As a reminder, we said we'd try to keep the exporter running "best effo= rt basis=20 until 9.0-RELEASE, 8.3-RELEASE, 7.4-RELEASE are no longer supported". = All of=20 these milestones are in the past. Archives of the last runs of the exporter are propagating to ftp.FreeBS= D.org=20 in /pub/FreeBSD/development/CVS-archive/ at this time. The contents of the src collection in the cvsup mirrors has been frozen= and=20 will soon only be available from the archive above. The previously rem= oved=20 ports, doc, www collections are also archived there for archaeology pur= poses. We still provide old-style pkg_add binary packages for both "subversion= " and=20 "svnup" for FreeBSD-8.x and 9.x. We provide new style 'pkg install' bi= nary=20 builds of these every week via pkg.FreeBSD.org. Both subversion and svnup build from source without too much difficulty= on older=20 versions of FreeBSD if required. We also provide daily source and ports tarballs on ftp.FreeBSD.org at=20= /pub/FreeBSD/development/tarballs/ as last resort for people with very= =20 ancient releases. Obtaining FreeBSD via subversion is documented at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/svn.html The temporary transition aid from 2008 had a good run. It is time to p= ut it=20 to rest. =2DPeter (murderer of cvs) =2D-=20 Peter Wemm - peter@wemm.org; peter@FreeBSD.org; peter@yahoo-inc.com; KI= 6FJV UTF-8: for when a ' just won\342\200\231t do. --nextPart1552936.8n2QSSpe14 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
