Actually, it shouldn't have been renamed to "-stable" yet (it should have been RELENG or something similar) but Joerg jumped the gun and now I'm worried that changing it back will result in two groups of "2.2-STABLE" users - those from phase I or phase II. :-) I think the damage is already done and we'll probably just have to live with it. In any case, 2.2 is not quite "stable" yet - that will happen soon enough though, with more testing and the wider release of 2.2.1 on the net and CDROM. -- - Jordan Hubbard FreeBSD core team / Walnut Creek CDROM.
