 <em>From <a href="mailto:jkh@FreeBSD.org">jkh</a>, November 4th:</em>
 
 <p>FreeBSD's development stream has, as of today, branched into the
 <b>2.2-RELEASE</b> and <b>3.0-<a href="handbook/current.html">CURRENT</a></b>
 development streams.  The <b>2.1-<a href="handbook/stable.html">STABLE</a></b>
 branch is also still alive, soon to terminate (for real, this time)
 with the impending release of <b>FreeBSD-2.1.6</b>.</p>
 
 <p>This branch has occurred so that <b>2.2</b> may be readied for release
 without impacting significant new developments, like SMP support, in the
 mainstream <a href="handbook/current.html">-current</a> branch.
 
 <p>Modulo any of our usual two-week slips here and there, here is
 our release schedule for 96/97:</p>
 
     <h3>December 1996</h3>
     <ul>
       <li><b>FreeBSD 2.1.6-RELEASE</b>
       <p>End of <b>2.1-STABLE</b> branch.</p>
     </ul>
     <h3>January 1997</h3>
     <ul>
       <li><b>FreeBSD 2.2-RELEASE</b>
       <p>Beginning of <b>2.2-STABLE</b>.</p>
     </ul>
     <h3>Spring 1997</h3>
     <ul>
       <li><b>FreeBSD 2.2.x-RELEASE</b>
       <p>Bugfix release for <b>2.2R</b> along <b>2.2-STABLE</b> branch.</p>
     </ul>
 
 <p>This is also probably as good a time as any to announce that new
 XFree86 <a href="ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/XFree86/2.2-CURRENT/XF8632">
 3.2 binaries</a>, with early <a href="http://www.matrox.com">Matrox</a>
 support, are available.</p>
 
 <p>Thanks to <a href="http://www.xfree86.org">The XFree86 project</a>
 for the timely binaries, which will be distributed with <b>2.2-RELEASE</b>
 (<b>2.1.6</b> binaries are still pending but should be available before that
 release).</p>
 
 <p>Lest there be any confusion about the <b>2.1.6</b> and <b>2.2</b> releases
 coming so close together, let me also just explain that the two branches of
 development had really very little to do with one another, and the fact
 that both branches came to release status around the same time was
 simply how the scheduling worked out.  When engineering is allowed
 to do the scheduling, it rarely employs traditional marketing
 strategems. :)</p>
 
 <p>In summary:</p>
 <ul>
 <li><b>2.1.6-RELEASE</b> is aimed squarely at commercial users who don't need
 to be on the leading edge of development but favor things like stability
 and a long test-cycle instead.  2.1-<a href="handbook/stable.html">STABLE</a>
  has had only incremental refinements made to it since <b>2.1.5</b> was
 released, and <b>2.1.6</b> will end what we feel to have been a very
 successful branch.<p></p>
 
 <li><b>2.2-RELEASE</b> will begin introducing the more leading edge
 technologies we've been developing over the year that
 <a href="handbook/stable.html">-stable</a> has run in parallel,
 and will also be entering bug-fix mode after its release.  Existing
 -stable customers will be encouraged to make the jump to 2.2-STABLE
 some time after <b>2.2</b>'s release, once the first round of customer
 PRs have come back and been acted on.<p></p>
 
 <li><b>3.0-CURRENT</b> is now the bleeding edge of development, and where
 all new development takes place.  Until code freeze on the 10th
 of November, changes may also be marked "For 2.2-RELEASE" and
 they will be brought into that branch as necessary.  After code
 freeze, it will have to be a clearly important bug fix to make
 it in before the release date.<p></p>
 
 Many significant changes are planned for <b>3.0</b>, and those interested
 in its development should subscribe to the freebsd-current
 <a href="handbook/eresources.html">mailing list</a> (send mail to
 <a href="mailto:majordomo@freebsd.org">majordomo@freebsd.org</a>).
 </ul>

 	ftp sites all around the world.  See the <a
 	href="releases/index.html">Release information</a> for
 	details.<p></p></li>
 
       <li><b>4-Nov-1995</b><br><a
 	href="releases/snapshots.html">Snapshot</a> 2.1.0-951104 is now
 	available.  The purpose of this snapshot is:<p></p>
 	<ul>
 	  <li>To incorporate changes based on all the feedback
 	    and bug reports received for the previous
 	    snapshot's installation.</li>
 
 	  <li>To incorporate the latest XFree86 release (3.1.2-S)
 	    with security enhancements.  There may be more fairly
 	    minor changes here before 2.1 is put on CD, but this
 	    is basically what will be shipping.</li>
 
 	  <li>To get feedback on the new ``Novice Install'' split
 	    out of the Express installation (which now truly <em>is</em>
 	    an express installation).</li>
 
 	  <li>To give folks something a little less buggy to load on new
 	  systems while they are waiting for 2.1 to come out.</li>
 
 	  <li>To fold in the latest versions of the FreeBSD
 	    Handbook, updated for 2.1.</li>
 	    
 	  <li>To correct some slight whiffy english in the online help.</li>
 
 	  <li>To go back to the previous approach of just
 	    uncommenting the ATAPI and wcd0 entries in GENERIC
 	    for building atapi.flp.  The idea of commenting out
 	    the wd2 and wd3 entries in an effort to make things
 	    better seems to have only made them worse in the last
 	    SNAP.  If this atapi.flp image works for you, great!
 	    If not, I'm afraid that it's far too late to do
 	    anything about at this stage so any failure reports
 	    will be simply filed for post-2.1 analysis.  Sorry
 	    IDE CDROM hackers, but you had your chance!</li>
 	</ul>
       </li>
     </ul>
 
     <h2>October 1995</h2>
 
     <ul>
 
       <li><b>30-Oct-1995</b><br> The 2.1.0-951026 <a
 	  href="releases/snapshots.html">Snapshot</a> has been
 	re-released with several bugfixes:<p></p>
 
 	<ul>
 	  <li>Atapi boot floppy now assumes it's alone by itself
 	    on the second IDE controller - this seems to work a
 	    lot better for most folks who were provided with
 	    dedicated controllers when they purchased their IDE
 	    CDROMS.  People with IDE disks on multiple IDE
 	    controllers should NOT use this floppy image.  Stick
 	    with boot.flp and build a custom kernel or something.</li>
 
 	  <li>The apache WEB server installation makes fewer assumptions about
 	    where you'll be putting things.</li>
 
 	  <li>Installing the secure dist no longer requires that you also
 	    install Kerberos in order to get things like telnet to work.</li>
 
 	  <li>Boot floppy should now support the Adaptec 2940 ULTRA (this was
 	    a side-effect more than a bug fix).</li>
 	</ul>
 	<p>However, there are some outstanding bugs you should know
 	about:</p>
 	<ul>
 	    <li>sysinstall seems to croak in certain situations
 	    if you run it after the system is installed.</li>
 
 	  <li>The FTP retry code still isn't 100% there -
 	    apparently it now doesn't handle reselection very
 	    well.  Sigh.  I'm so truly sick of looking at that
 	    part of the code that if somebody else wanted to have
 	    a look, I wouldn't fight them off!  It seems like
 	    every time I fix one thing, I break something else.</li>
 
 	  <li>The media selection screen protects itself from
 	    re-entry in some situations when you'd really like it
 	    to be allowed.  Whoops!</li>
 	  <li>Using more than one FreeBSD ``slice'' can cause problems.</li>
 	</ul>
       <p></p></li>
 
       <li><b>26-Oct-1995</b><br><a
 	href="releases/snapshots.html">Snapshot</a>
 	2.1.0-951026 is now available.  New fixes/features
 	include:<p></p>

 	    on a new system in a fully-automated fashion (if you
 	    install a lot of systems, this is a big help).</li>
 
 	  <li>You may now read the HTML Handbook and FAQ
 	    documents directly from the boot floppy after
 	    installation (as well as visit any other WEB site).</li>
 
 	  <li>Failure to create a /usr is no longer an error,
 	    just a warning.</li>
 
 	  <li>The matcd driver was shrunk down some more,
 	    <em>possibly</em> resulting in a return to 4MB
 	    operation (please test this).</li>
 
 	  <li>The latest ATAPI CDROM changes were merged in and
 	    another atapi.flp boot image generated.  Again,

 	<p>As always, this snapshot is offered as a complete
 	  replacement for the previous release and is aimed at
 	  new users installing the system from scratch.  Still no
 	  update mechanism yet, but there are rumors of a project
 	  being formed to deal with this soon.  If you've any
 	  interest in being part of it, then please send mail to
 	  <a href="mailto:hackers@freebsd.org">hackers@freebsd.org</a>.
 	  I'll also be getting involved in the whole update
 	  mechanism issue since it's been a gaping hole for far
 	  too long now and I'd like to see a solution sooner
 	  rather than later.  I'm sure that many of our users
 	  feel the same way!</p>

 <em>From <a href="mailto:jkh@FreeBSD.org">jkh</a>, November 4th:</em>
 
 <p>FreeBSD's development stream has, as of today, branched into the
 <b>2.2-RELEASE</b> and <b>3.0-<a href="handbook/current.html">CURRENT</a></b>
 development streams.  The <b>2.1-<a href="handbook/stable.html">STABLE</a></b>
 branch is also still alive, soon to terminate (for real, this time)
 with the impending release of <b>FreeBSD-2.1.6</b>.</p>
 
 <p>This branch has occurred so that <b>2.2</b> may be readied for release
 without impacting significant new developments, like SMP support, in the
 mainstream <a href="handbook/current.html">-current</a> branch.
 
 <p>Modulo any of our usual two-week slips here and there, here is
 our release schedule for 96/97:</p>
 
     <h3>December 1996</h3>
     <ul>
       <li><b>FreeBSD 2.1.6-RELEASE</b>
       <p>End of <b>2.1-STABLE</b> branch.</p>
     </ul>
     <h3>January 1997</h3>
     <ul>
       <li><b>FreeBSD 2.2-RELEASE</b>
       <p>Beginning of <b>2.2-STABLE</b>.</p>
     </ul>
     <h3>Spring 1997</h3>
     <ul>
       <li><b>FreeBSD 2.2.x-RELEASE</b>
       <p>Bugfix release for <b>2.2R</b> along <b>2.2-STABLE</b> branch.</p>
     </ul>
 
 <p>This is also probably as good a time as any to announce that new
 XFree86 <a href="ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/XFree86/2.2-CURRENT/XF8632">
 3.2 binaries</a>, with early <a href="http://www.matrox.com">Matrox</a>
 support, are available.</p>
 
 <p>Thanks to <a href="http://www.xfree86.org">The XFree86 project</a>
 for the timely binaries, which will be distributed with <b>2.2-RELEASE</b>
 (<b>2.1.6</b> binaries are still pending but should be available before that
 release).</p>
 
 <p>Lest there be any confusion about the <b>2.1.6</b> and <b>2.2</b> releases
 coming so close together, let me also just explain that the two branches of
 development had really very little to do with one another, and the fact
 that both branches came to release status around the same time was
 simply how the scheduling worked out.  When engineering is allowed
 to do the scheduling, it rarely employs traditional marketing
 strategems. :)</p>
 
 <p>In summary:</p>
 <ul>
 <li><b>2.1.6-RELEASE</b> is aimed squarely at commercial users who don't need
 to be on the leading edge of development but favor things like stability
 and a long test-cycle instead.  2.1-<a href="handbook/stable.html">STABLE</a>
  has had only incremental refinements made to it since <b>2.1.5</b> was
 released, and <b>2.1.6</b> will end what we feel to have been a very
 successful branch.<p></p>
 
 <li><b>2.2-RELEASE</b> will begin introducing the more leading edge
 technologies we've been developing over the year that
 <a href="handbook/stable.html">-stable</a> has run in parallel,
 and will also be entering bug-fix mode after its release.  Existing
 -stable customers will be encouraged to make the jump to 2.2-STABLE
 some time after <b>2.2</b>'s release, once the first round of customer
 PRs have come back and been acted on.<p></p>
 
 <li><b>3.0-CURRENT</b> is now the bleeding edge of development, and where
 all new development takes place.  Until code freeze on the 10th
 of November, changes may also be marked "For 2.2-RELEASE" and
 they will be brought into that branch as necessary.  After code
 freeze, it will have to be a clearly important bug fix to make
 it in before the release date.<p></p>
 
 Many significant changes are planned for <b>3.0</b>, and those interested
 in its development should subscribe to the freebsd-current
 <a href="handbook/eresources.html">mailing list</a> (send mail to
 <a href="mailto:majordomo@freebsd.org">majordomo@freebsd.org</a>).
 </ul>

       <a href="ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2-960323-SNAP">2.2-960323</a>
       <a href="releases/snapshots.html">snapshot</a>
       has been released. The new features of this snapshot are:<p></p>
         <ul>
           <li>The Intel EtherExpress Pro/100B PCI ethernet card is now
           supported.</li>
 
 	  <li>The 3COM 3C590 and 3C595 ethernet cards are now supported.</li>
 
 	  <li>The ARNET (now Digiboard) Sync 570i high-speed serial card is
 	  now supported.</li>
 
 	  <li>The Linux emulation is now good enough to run the Linux version
 	  of Netscape, with JAVA support (as well as a number of other Linux
 	  utilities).</li>
 
 	  <li>The Matrox Meteor frame grabber card is better supported.</li>
 
 	  <li>It is now possible to burn CDROMs using the Plasmon or HP 4080i
 	  CDR drives (see `wormcontrol(1)').</li>
 
 	  <li>The pipe code has been substantially sped up, as have some
 	  components of the VM system.</li>
 
 	  <li>A /dev/random device (and associated "pool of entropy") has
 	  been added for applications which require more unpredicatable
 	  sequences of random numbers for security.  See the random(4)
 	  man page for more info.</li>
 
 	  <li>Early NFS v3 support (not enabled by default).</li>
 
 	  <li>An early implementation of the Device Filesystem (devfs)
 	  is available (see mount_devfs).  Device switch tables are now
 	  also dynamically built.</li>
 
 	  <li>Early IPX routing support.</li>
 	</ul>
     </ul>
 
     <h2>November 1995</h2>
 
     <ul>
       <li><b>19-Nov-1995</b><br>FreeBSD 2.1 is now available at
 	ftp sites all around the world.  See the <a
 	href="releases/index.html">Release information</a> for
 	details.<p></p></li>
 
       <li><b>4-Nov-1995</b><br><a
 	href="releases/snapshots.html">Snapshot</a> 2.1.0-951104 is now
 	available.  The purpose of this snapshot is:<p></p>
 	<ul>
 	  <li>To incorporate changes based on all the feedback
 	    and bug reports received for the previous
 	    snapshot's installation.</li>
 
 	  <li>To incorporate the latest XFree86 release (3.1.2-S)
 	    with security enhancements.  There may be more fairly
 	    minor changes here before 2.1 is put on CD, but this
 	    is basically what will be shipping.</li>
 
 	  <li>To get feedback on the new ``Novice Install'' split
 	    out of the Express installation (which now truly <em>is</em>
 	    an express installation).</li>
 
 	  <li>To give folks something a little less buggy to load on new
 	  systems while they are waiting for 2.1 to come out.</li>
 
 	  <li>To fold in the latest versions of the FreeBSD
 	    Handbook, updated for 2.1.</li>
 	    
 	  <li>To correct some slight whiffy english in the online help.</li>
 
 	  <li>To go back to the previous approach of just
 	    uncommenting the ATAPI and wcd0 entries in GENERIC
 	    for building atapi.flp.  The idea of commenting out
 	    the wd2 and wd3 entries in an effort to make things
 	    better seems to have only made them worse in the last
 	    SNAP.  If this atapi.flp image works for you, great!
 	    If not, I'm afraid that it's far too late to do
 	    anything about at this stage so any failure reports
 	    will be simply filed for post-2.1 analysis.  Sorry
 	    IDE CDROM hackers, but you had your chance!</li>
 	</ul>

     </ul>
 
     <h2>October 1995</h2>
 
     <ul>
 
       <li><b>30-Oct-1995</b><br> The 2.1.0-951026 <a
 	  href="releases/snapshots.html">Snapshot</a> has been
 	re-released with several bugfixes:<p></p>
 
 	<ul>
 	  <li>Atapi boot floppy now assumes it's alone by itself
 	    on the second IDE controller - this seems to work a
 	    lot better for most folks who were provided with
 	    dedicated controllers when they purchased their IDE
 	    CDROMS.  People with IDE disks on multiple IDE
 	    controllers should NOT use this floppy image.  Stick
 	    with boot.flp and build a custom kernel or something.</li>
 
 	  <li>The apache WEB server installation makes fewer assumptions about
 	    where you'll be putting things.</li>
 
 	  <li>Installing the secure dist no longer requires that you also
 	    install Kerberos in order to get things like telnet to work.</li>
 
 	  <li>Boot floppy should now support the Adaptec 2940 ULTRA (this was
 	    a side-effect more than a bug fix).</li>
 	</ul>
 	<p>However, there are some outstanding bugs you should know
 	about:</p>
 	<ul>
 	    <li>sysinstall seems to croak in certain situations
 	    if you run it after the system is installed.</li>
 
 	  <li>The FTP retry code still isn't 100% there -
 	    apparently it now doesn't handle reselection very
 	    well.  Sigh.  I'm so truly sick of looking at that
 	    part of the code that if somebody else wanted to have
 	    a look, I wouldn't fight them off!  It seems like
 	    every time I fix one thing, I break something else.</li>
 
 	  <li>The media selection screen protects itself from
 	    re-entry in some situations when you'd really like it
 	    to be allowed.  Whoops!</li>
 	  <li>Using more than one FreeBSD ``slice'' can cause problems.</li>
 	</ul>
       <p></p></li>
 
       <li><b>26-Oct-1995</b><br><a
 	href="releases/snapshots.html">Snapshot</a>
 	2.1.0-951026 is now available.  New fixes/features
 	include:<p></p>
 	<ul>
 	  <li>All /etc/sysconfig information now written correctly.</li>
 
 	  <li>WEB server option now works properly.</li>
 
 	  <li>The package installation menu now works.</li>
 
 	  <li>All the auto-installation instrumentation
 	    (installation by config file) now works.  It's
 	    possible to install everything from start to finish
 	    on a new system in a fully-automated fashion (if you
 	    install a lot of systems, this is a big help).</li>
 
 	  <li>You may now read the HTML Handbook and FAQ
 	    documents directly from the boot floppy after
 	    installation (as well as visit any other WEB site).</li>
 
 	  <li>Failure to create a /usr is no longer an error,
 	    just a warning.</li>
 
 	  <li>The matcd driver was shrunk down some more,
 	    <em>possibly</em> resulting in a return to 4MB
 	    operation (please test this).</li>
 
 	  <li>The latest ATAPI CDROM changes were merged in and
 	    another atapi.flp boot image generated.  Again,
 	    please test.</li>

 	<ul>
 	  <li>SLIP installation didn't ``ifconfig sl0''
 	    properly.</li>
 
 	  <li>It was not possible to do certain operations
 	    atomically, e.g.  just write out fdisk information,
 	    or just extract distributions.  This can now be done
 	    from the <b>Custom Install</b> menu.</li>

 	  <li>A couple of panics in the kernel are now fixed.</li>
 
 	  <li>DOS filesystems are now mounted read-only by
 	    default until we figure out what it is about R/W DOS
 	    filesystems that clobbers some systems.
 	  </li>
 	</ul>
 
 	<p>As always, this snapshot is offered as a complete
 	  replacement for the previous release and is aimed at
 	  new users installing the system from scratch.  Still no
 	  update mechanism yet, but there are rumors of a project
 	  being formed to deal with this soon.  If you've any
 	  interest in being part of it, then please send mail to
 	  <a href="mailto:hackers@freebsd.org">hackers@freebsd.org</a>.
 	  I'll also be getting involved in the whole update
 	  mechanism issue since it's been a gaping hole for far
 	  too long now and I'd like to see a solution sooner
 	  rather than later.  I'm sure that many of our users
 	  feel the same way!</p>

 	  <li>The hostname still isn't being set properly in
