For example, on a recent SA, Corrected: 2001/11/22 17:40:36 UTC (4.4-STABLE aka RELENG_4) 2001/12/07 20:58:46 UTC (4.4-RELEASEp1 aka RELENG_4_4) 2001/12/07 20:57:19 UTC (4.3-RELEASEp21 aka RELENG_4_3) Do these have some meaning with respect to the binary patches? With respect to the CVS repository? Is there a database of what each of these means? -- Crist J.
