I meant 5.0 will is scheduled for November 20. I don't know how I managed to type 5.2. :-( > Is there any issue upgrading via cvsup (make world) from -STABLE to > V5.1? And would you recommand that I waited till 5.2? Stable will transition to the 5.0 kernel in the near future. If you run stable, you should have the choice of staying with RELENG_4 or going to RELENG_5. The head (CURRENT) will open to lots of new stuff that will grow, in a couple of years or so, into V6.0. Most work will go into RELENG_5, which will be STABLE and there will be at least one and maybe a couple of releases in the V4 train, but not much will happen there. If you want to transition to V5 when it becomes "STABLE", subscribe to freebsd-stable. All relevant announcements SHOULD be made there. R.
