Similarly, I'm a bit concerned that 9.0 loses support at the end of January, but there is no release date for 9.1 (at http://www5.us.freebsd.org/releases/9.1R/schedule.html, the last actual date shown is November 3, 2012, for RC3). I'm confused as to the best course of action: continue to use an unsupported version and hope the new one comes out sooner than later, or downgrade to a supported version (8.3). I know FreeBSD is free and community-supported, but this still seems a bit... improper? Right now I'm only dealing with personal machines (and nothing truly vital at that), but I am formulating plans to use FreeBSD commercially and this makes me uneasy. -- Stephen
