We will be shooting for a dual release (same target dates for both releases). The major highlights are: Freeze: Nov. 28, 2010 BETA1: Dec. 3, 2010 RC1: Dec. 17, 2010 RC2: Jan 7, 2011 REL: Jan 21, 2011 It is expected that 7.4 will be the last of the 7.X releases. The schedules are available on the Web: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/7.4R/schedule.html http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.2R/schedule.html as are the Wiki pages that will be used to track the progress of the releases: http://wiki.freebsd.org/Releng/7.4TODO http://wiki.freebsd.org/Releng/8.2TODO While on the topic of releases, branches, etc... On a slightly related note the November 2010 Monthly Snapshots will be the last to include stable/6 (RELENG_6, 6.X) since secteam support for that branch will end at the end of November. I'll make a separate, explicit announcement about that once the November 2010 Snapshots become available. --=20 Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodor Geisel | --=-K7qvXPhYRL/wZIjJEHkm Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (FreeBSD) iEYEABECAAYFAkzBrsEACgkQ/G14VSmup/ahDwCcCv6XHlFmD3t4lDc3FaHOgbbM GF4AoJA+BWli9pMXL8UbmMMAddj5ywq+ =Q4MC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-K7qvXPhYRL/wZIjJEHkm--
