Last week I was sending some panic reports (using 6-CURRENT and RELENG_5) and debugger traces to this list. I didn't get a response and while cvsup'ing twice a day for several days and doing buildkernel every other day the situation didn't change. So I'm wondering if this is the right place to report panics and traces? Or are these better placed at hackers@? Another question: Do you really expect RELENG_5 to become stable within the very next few weeks? From my point of experience with RELENG_5 it looks like I have to switch my OS as I don't believe the 5-STABLE will be production stable soon. I have to install two new bsd-based routers on 10/10/ and I have to decide now whether I still do believe in FreeBSDs' stability.
