Hello,

> I am running 2.2.2 release.  I am considering implementing cvsup to stay
> current.  I have built a 
> custom kernel.  Will my kernel be affected?  Will I need to rebuild it? 

no, not at all. CVSup does not rely on any special kernel features (as
far as I know), so it shouold work with any kind of custimized kernel.

> In order to go the the 2.2.2 stable, what tag should I use?  Any help

Use the tag RELENG_2_2 to do this. You can use the example files in
/usr/share/examples/cvsup as your starting point and then customize them
for your purposes. This works straightforward.
