We are gaining a reputation lately. It is the nature of -current to break occasionally and I would be no means wish to get so anal about this that the whole intention of -current was lost, namely to be a place to work out new stuff and, yes, occasionally break things in the process. That is why -current has always been a strictly no-warranty proposition with warning stickers stuck all over it. The complains we've been getting lately stem, I think, more from the fact that a lot of the wrong people are now running -current rather than any major instability there. Hell, I remember when running -current was a good way to lose *filesystems* and things have definitely come a hell of a long way from there. ;-) Jordan
