You've confused STABLE with RELEASE. 6.2 has not reached RELEASE. 6-STABLE is the latest "these changes worked fine in CURRENT (right now, aka 7) and have been MFCed (merged from current) so that more people can try them out", which right now corresponds to the version of FreeBSDthat is just about to be released which also happens to be called6.2-RC1 (release candidate 1)). When 6.2 is ready to go, a new RELEASEbranch is created (6.2-RELEASE) which only gets security fixes.

So, if I want the 'latest version' that 'isnt a work in progress' (or at least tested to the point where it is know to be working correctly in the majority of scenarios)
always use the RELEASE branches ?
