Date: Fri, 09 May 1997 21:22:09 -0700 Message-ID: <18077.863238129@time.cdrom.com> From: "Jordan K. Hubbard" Sender: owner-freebsd-announce@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk ACC TelEnterprises & James FitzGibbon have stepped forward and created, how shall I put it, a very *attractively* configured and connected machine for this purpose, complete with administrative support. Therefore, once I have it set up to start building SNAPs, I'll start up the cron job and have David G. point "current.freebsd.org" at this machine so that it people can ftp the latest 3.0-SNAPs from it in the same way they currently have releng22.freebsd.org for the RELENG_2_2 (2.2-stable) branch. Of course, this raises an interesting question: Now that it's truly possible to get daily releases from the 3.0 & 2.2 bits (and, if someone else is still up to volunteer a box, I guess we could also create a releng210.freebsd.org for the 2.1-stable branch?) - what differentiates a "good" one from a bad one? Which ones should we copy over to ftp.freebsd.org, periodically? I suppose that Terry will now suggest some sort of voting system and I can't even say that it's such a bad idea (just so long as I don't have to write the vote collection and tabulation software :-).
