However, many scripts out there do not deal well with _ in release names, while they do with -. I was running FreeBSD 4.0_19991003_TSC for a while and found that too much software in the ports collection would freak out on this name, but not 4.0-19991003-TSC. So I don't care if you call it 4.3-ALL-YOUR-RELEASE-ARE-BELONG-TO-US or 4.3-CAT-WROTE-FLOPPY-DRIVER just don't use underscores. Thank you.
