Compelte and official is hard to define. 2.2.5 is the last complete 'release' as such, and is probably what you want. 3.0-SNAP is a psuedo-release which is a daily 'picture' of the main line of developement; it has new features that are just being deveoped, but isn't an actualy supported 'release'; it's more for testing purposes. > I would like to order the documentation for FreeBSD (Handbook) > on paper.
