I think that this, in combination with Gene's suggestion of creating a release from a branch off a "stable" snapshot, would be a real winner for people wanting to use FreeBSD in earnest. The snapshots and sup/ctm already make life wonderful for those of us who can cope with life on the bleeding edge, but truly stable releases are what enable us to recommend FreeBSD as a solution in production environments.
