I agree. Why rush 4.0-RELEASE out the door if it's "not there yet"? One possibility is to make our 4.0-current something like 3.9-RELEASE, and when everything has been added, release 4.0-RELEASE. 3.9-RELEASE would be a lot like 4.0-REL, only with some missing parts (such as IPV6 you just mentioned). That way, 3.9-REL would bear all the shortcomings of a release ending in 0, and when 4.0-REL comes out, it would be less buggy than most *.0 releases. (It would really be at the level of a *.1 release then.) - Donn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
