I FTP it on a major revision to make sure my local work is not disturbed; I could sup it and copy the tree instead of FTP'ing it, but I have no reason to waste that much disk. > 2: am I correct in believing that they could be applied to the latest > 2.2-SNAP (possibly after supping to -current)? They are a replacement -current /usr/src/sys directory, so yes. > 3: is it stable enough to actually compile and run programs yet? Again, I am typing from the machine now, so I'd say "yes". I would view it as experimental (but I view -current in the same light). Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
