Message-ID: <20000328223811.A331@localhost.localdomain> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i X-Organization: Northwestern University X-Operating-System: FreeBSD localhost.localdomain 3.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I just bought the 3.4-RELEASE CDs and wonder if it's "necessary" for a desktop user like me to go to 3.4-STABLE? With 4 CDs of packages/ports, updating to the stable branch will mean I'll essentially loose those packages/ports, right, since they are meant for RELEASE and not STABLE? -- David Kanter djkanter@nwu.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
