At this point I do not know if you guys are talking about makeing a few large patches that are the application of say patches 1-50 applied and a new patch made, or if you guys are just talking about tar'ing up the 150 patches.

In the past we would wait a few months for them. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
