I have said this in the past. Now seems like a pertinent time to express this opinion again. Please let -STABLE be stable and -CURRENT be the development branch. Please do not call anything from the -CURRENT branch a -RELEASE. Please do not label code as a "new technology release" as a notional label. Please either release the code or don't. Instead of waiting for a "dot-oh" release to know that the next major version of FreeBSD is ready for prime time, users wait for a "this time we really mean it" release announcement. The difference is mostly semantic. The old way was more rigorous. I like the old way better. Thanks, Jason C. Wells
