This build will be /newer/ than 4.11R and always will be. Will it be safe to use? What about security updates? Or will it be safer to stick with 4.11R and update the sources to RELENG-4_11? What are the benefits of using 4.11-stable if it's deprecated? Are there any? -- dick -- http://nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.11 ++ FreeBSD 5.3 + Nai tiruvantel ar vayuvantel i Valar tielyanna nu vilja
