My thanks,

Would it be possible to request that when a security branch is changed to
"not officially supported" that there is a warning about this before it
happens to the freebsd-announce list? Or is such an announcement made
somewhere already and I just missed it?

It would be great to know about this in advance so that those systems
could be brought up to date before occasions like the recent patches.

Jamin
