5.0 Documentation--freebsd-doc As a minimum, we need to cover the areas where 5.x and 4.x differ in the FAQ and Handbook. This entails marking some areas with "This procedure is specific to 4.X. For more information for 5.x, please see foo(n)" or similar. This needs to happen quickly, to give adequate time fo rthe translation teams to catch up.
