Well, RELENG_4 is still technically - or might be considered ;) - 4.x-STABLE, although 4.4-RC is a better description. So yes, I guess you're right - the 4.4-RC1 snapshot of the 4.4-RC period of the RELENG_4 branch (whee..) is a better choice than any snapshot of the 4.3-STABLE period of the RELENG_4 branch.. Okay, I'll shut up now :) G'luck, Peter -- "yields falsehood, when appended to its quotation." yields falsehood, when appended to its quotation.
