Values of ``BRANCH'' (to be renamed FLAVOR after the 2.2.5 release) are ALPHA, BETA, ..., RELEASE, STABLE, CURRENT. Now, tell me it can go away since you now have all the information and I't will after the 2.2.5 release. > The "current" branch is presently called "3.0". Okay, I'll buy that, it means we can set FLAVOR == CURRENT instead of FLAVOR == STABLE on the RELENG_2_1 and RELENG_2_2 branches. Now is that ever going to confuse the shit out of users :-) -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation, Inc. Reliable computers for FreeBSD
