I did 9.3 to 11.0 using freebsd-update.  I had no choice since 10.x would not 
boot on my system.  9 and 11 boot just fine.  It worked, but I had to patch 
freebsd-update to get there.  I don't find it anymore, but it did involve 
adding a comma in a long string.  It should still be available in the archives.

I went from 9 to 11 without issue with the make work/kernel method and
rebuilt all the ports.

Generally (and previously) the advice is to go via the next major version so
you should go:

9.3 -> 10.x -> 11.x not 9.3 -> 11.x


Exactelly what I want to avoid.
People successfuly upgraded, without branch 10.


In the past I did 8.4 to 10.3, but not by freebsd-update. We are using 
make installkernel + make installworld method. 9.3 to 11.1 can work 
similarly.

Generally (and previously) the advice is to go via the next major 
version so you should go:


9.3 -> 10.x -> 11.x not 9.3 -> 11.x
