However, this You obviously haven't been reading all the threads on this same topic over the past month. We need the "BETA" stage for ports. Plain and simple. Some seem to prefer -PRERELEASE.

Read the archives to see why it is needed for ports right before a release. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
