David... [YOU SAID...] |...and -stable is half-way between -current and -release, so to speak? |I mean, -releases are from the -stable branch, which keeps going after |every -release until the next -release, and so forth? | |Confused... :-) [NOW IT'S MY TURN.... ] Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but this is my understanding: -release = "the CD(s)"; -stable = "the CD(s)" + updates -current = "the CD(s)" + updates + experimental stuff The advise seems to be that newbies like me should stick to -release until we know our way around a bit better. later..........duke To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
