That would be good, but drm-14.1-61-kmod-6.1.69_2 (aka have multiple versions of ports and require users to kmod packages to pick the right now) would be better than what we have now. > Ideally, we'd keep the same KBI per major release, but that ideal has fallen > short. Having a stable KBI only solves half of the problem. With DRM especially it's useful for people running the latest minor release to use kmods which make use of functionality which was added in the latest release before the previous release is EoLed. -- Colin Percival FreeBSD Release Engineering Lead & EC2 platform maintainer Founder, Tarsnap | www.tarsnap.com | Online backups for the truly paranoid
