The file /usr/src/UPDATING contains a lot of stuff that you should read carefully through. It even includes a ``cookbook like'' list of things that you can do to upgrade your system. You will probably find the security notifications page useful too. Look at http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/ Giorgos.
