There's a magic intersection between "need to run current" and "need to keep stuff unbroken enough to get work done." I have 9.0-REL and -HEAD boxes at the moment which I actually use for development. But enough things are going wonky with kde4 for now that getting "actual work done" is hard. Upgrading ports will become a lot less painful with pkgng, so I hope to try and migrate to that when it's (more) ready. This is the unfortunate side effect of things being mostly run by volunteers who have to work to eat. :-) Adrian _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
