And what is wrong with I've already explained in a previous email that releases are an integral part of the process which improves FreeBSD. If they didn't happen on a reasonably frequent basis, FreeBSD would never reach its quality targets for a given branch in anything approaching a reasonable period of time. > Come to find out, after installing my systems via ftp.

And, I am either blind or correct in Not at all - ftpsearch is your friend. You can get 3.0-RELEASE from a number of places on the net and whether or not we choose to distribute it from ftp.freebsd.org (for space reasons) has little to do with the mirror policy or being able to get it easily on the net. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
