Hi,
I'm just about to upgrade my 5.2.1-RELEASE system to 5.3-RELEASE.
I thought this would be a good opportunity to ask some questions I've been=
=20
wondering about for quite some time re the info in Updating.

=46irstly, I assume (always risky!) that stuff like:
> 20041003:
> The pfil API has gained an additional argument to pass an inpcb.You shoul=
d=20
rebuild all pfil consuming modules: ipfw, ipfilter and pf.

will be rebuilt when I run make buildworld & you only have to worry about=20
building it specifically if you selectively build certain parts of the sour=
ce=20
rather than the world?

The release of 5.3 is clearly marked in Updating, but the release of 5.2.1=
=20
isn't so I guess I can ignore stuff before it's release date which is=20
24-02-2004?

I've cvsuped the doc collection. There are no instructions in the handbook =
for=20
building doc - does it get built along with the rest of the source when I d=
o=20
my make buildworld, or do I need to build it seperately (I assume it's the=
=20
stuff in /usr/src/share/doc ?)

Cheers,

=2D --=20
Ian
