I think you're confused by terminology. As I understand it, the ports tree is supported on -CURRENT and the latest -STABLE series: that is, currently on 6.x and 7.x (and possibly 5.x still since RELENG_5 and RELENG_6 were both being released for a while), but not RELENG_4 or earlier. -- brandon s. allbery [solaris,freebsd,perl,pugs,haskell] [EMAIL PROTECTED] system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] [EMAIL PROTECTED] electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH
So my question remains when we have 7.0 and 6.3 both STABLE releases will the ports tree not be supported in 6.3 a just released version of FreeBSD?
