Way I understand it, the idea is no new functionality in 2.1 (STABLE), just bug fixes. I think it's been violated, but only for stuff that's gone thru testing by sitting in 2.2 (CURRENT) for awhile, and even then, there's some argument. The idea is for the 2.1 release to approach the kind of reputation for reliability that our old, revered 1.1.5.1 release has. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@eng.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 9120 Edmonston Ct #302 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and n3lxx, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 2.2 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
