>Description:
	The Handbook, in particular http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/releng/article.html, lacks information on updating 5.2. I'm testing the water, after tracking 4_RELENG for a while, and don't want to use CURRENT, but nformation on the equivalent to RELENG_4 is hard to find. I see RELENG_5_2 in cvsweb -- is there something else I should track to keep 5.2 updated without going fully bleeding-edge? This should also probably be mentioned in the FAQ.

	Similarly, http://www.freebsd.org/releng/ should be updated (the HEAD comment says 5.2 is not yet announced).
	
>How-To-Repeat:
	Visit the mentioned URLs.
	
>Fix:
	Update these URLs with information on tracking 5.2 -- is RELENG_5_2 only for security fixes, comparable to RELENG_4_8? Is there any alternative to track aside from CURRENT (tag=.)?
