On the 2nd on January I made a fresh install of a 3.3-REL. On that same day I updated its /usr/src to 4.0-CURRENT. I went through a process(almost trivial to me, trivial for you guys) that took sometime. On the 3rd the machine was fully running -CURRENT. I made this rehearsal because I have a dozen must-be-online that in due time, will be running 4.0. I remember last years 'version-rush', scripts and whatever, to upgrade everyone to 3.0. Some made it with success, some not. Thanks to the great job FreeBSD's team has been doing, more and more people are running FreeBSD on very serious environments/bussinesses and gladly, not everyone needs to be a 15 year-old Unix hacker to command the troops. What are your plans regarding the upgrading procedure this year ? Will it be easy to upgrade to the 4.0-REL from 3.4(5) with scripts ?
