The suggestions are all good, but they require volunteers to volunteer more of their time (for free, hence "volunteering") to maintain longer branches; it requires more resources from volunteer mirrors (for free, hence "volunteer") to store even more ports and CD-ROM ISO snapshots.
What we as a community need is more people standing up and taking these jobs on. No-one will complain if you decide to tackle, say, the ISO snapshots based on security releases. But you'd then have to do all of the QA that goes into generating the release, building the ports, doing some tests to make sure there aren't any glaring gotchas, asking users to test out your pre-.0 release image (and they don't, then complain when .0 didn't work), etc, etc. So please, if you can step up, take ownership and start attacking these issues, we'll embrace you with open arms. :) Adrian _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
