Date: Wed, 7 Feb 2001 17:09:16 +1000 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2911.0) X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.50.4133.2400 Importance: Normal Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm wondering if there is an announce list - or even just this one perhaps, where 'critical updates' are announced.? I notice that even on a daily basis almost, cvsup will bring in new/modified files in the STABLE 4.2 branch, but not wanting to do a buildworld every day, I figure some will be 'critical' and some just patching and mods. But, if there is a modification that is critical, like a security patch, kernel fix or the like.. will it be announced? or just left up to the users to catch it in a once a month type cvs.?
