=2E..for "requests for comments" to upcoming stuff in the RELENG branch
or changes being prepared for the next -RELEASE, to rephrase the bottom
line of the paragraph you deleted.

i think you misunderstood what i was trying to say. i was talking about
notifications to the folks tracking new releases (and prereleases) to be
able to test it. something like "zlib was updated in the base dist. try
cvsupping RELENG_4 and look if there are problems". sure, -current
related stuff does not belong here, and -qa specifics and patches, too,
except they'd be critical and important for the -STABLE users. i hope i
could make the point clear now.
