By the time of this writing, the CVS tree tagging for the RELENG_2_2_0 branch has just finished... which means, the finalization of 2.2R has now been moved off the main development line. Only minor modificat- ions are being expected before the alpha and beta stages will happen. (Well, 2.2 already had a fairly long beta stage by now, and it was in big danger to become ``the longest beta cycle of the world''. :-) > 2.1.6 seems likely to be stabler than 2.2R,and is thus likelier for me Yes. People like you are those who 2.1.6 is targeted for. > as an upgrade to the 2.1R I run my ISP on.(2.2.6,when it comes...) 2.2.6 is not very likely at all. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
