I don't know how many patches have been applied locally to it but that would be the main challenge in importing a newer version: you'd have to go through the FreeBSD CVS history and check that any changes/fixes that were made to FreeBSD's version are either already included in the new release or ensure that those changes get re-applied to the new version. -- Bruce Cran _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
