I think that I remember Jordan mentioning a few days ago that when
2.2.8 comes out (which should be in late 1998?) it will be the last
release in the 2.X sequence.  Does this mean that 3.X will become
STABLE, and 4.0 will be CURRENT?  Will there be a 2.3.X sequence?

The reason I ask is because I am setting up a lab full of FBSD2.X
systems, and if by waiting a few months to get very subtle in how
I configure things I will end up with a significantly more stable
(in the sense of less-changing) system, then I will wait.  (For
example, I won't bother replacing the 2.2.5 systems I already have
on them with 2.2.7).
