Well, that is exactly the purpose of that list: to give developpers an overview about what's happening in other parts of the CVS repositiory. If you're not a developper, there is no reason to subscribe to that list -- even as user who is running -CURRENT: There is the current@ mailing list for discussions about the `bleeding edge' (development, testing, debugging, etc.) There is also a weekly summary about the cvs-src mailing list, so both interested users and developers can inform themselves abouts what's going on: http://excel.xl0.org/FreeBSD/ (also posted to current@) Simon --mojUlQ0s9EVzWg2t Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFA8y/sCkn+/eutqCoRAmldAKCAYYSf8HELVdoTbTCN57ioIlZCeQCgsBiW 8suucEftWfNmuWRoU8sMCj8= =iZY2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --mojUlQ0s9EVzWg2t--
