Ok Thanks

I am confused with this whole release stuff as I see the following

release-11.0.0
release-11.0.1
releng-11.0

I have been tracking releng-11.0 in the past and I am on 11.0-p9 which 
shows as this in uname -a:

FreeBSD desktop.example.com 11.0-RELEASE-p9 FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p9 #0 
r316958: Sat Apr 15 09:25:18 EDT 2017 
root@desktop.example.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

Is release-11.0.1 the same as releng-11.0-p9?

So is tracking releng correct or should I be tracking 11.0.1?
