In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG [I hope no one takes this message as spam.] With all the complaints and hardships people come across when upgrading (particularly across the 3.x -> 4.x boundary), I'm sure it sometimes looks like no one is ever satisfied, and the whole mess deserves to be sent to /dev/null. I, however, would like to congratulate the FreeBSD (and, by proxy, the contributing code from all the *BSDs and even Linux, in parts) team for their hard work. The upgrade worked for me. Yes, it required some tweaking, part of which resulted from me not knowing something, or thinking I knew it better than the people who write UPDATING, but it _WORKED_. That in itself is amazing. Approximately two hundred megabytes of source code compiled without a hitch, and upgraded a system in situ. AMAZING. So give yourselves a pat on your backs, and take yourself out for a celebratory beer sometime. :) Thanks! taa `@( /*eof*/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
