RELENG_4_8_0_RELEASE vs RELENG_4_8

2003-10-26 Thread Robert H. Perry
I'm upgrading from 4.7 RELEASE and intended to build and install 4.8 
RELEASE.  It was recommended that I consider RELENG_4_8 because it 
contained some 13 security fixes.  I came across a CVS website 
indicating that the code was for security advisories  and other 
seriously critical fixes.   Does this mean that RELENG_4_8 does not have 
all of the code as RELEASE 4.8?  Is it any more or less stable?

Thank you.

Bob

RELENG_4_8 contains the same code as RELENG_4_8_0_RELEASE with the necessary
changes to fix the security bugs that were discovered after 4.8 was Released.
