Hello! I see 4.8-RELEASE is already available on ftp://ftp.freebsd.org, but release notes don't mention status of Security Advisory 03:07 (last buffer overflow in sendmail). IMHO this should be fixed ASAP (I believe bug itself has been fixed in -RELEASE, isn't it?). Sincerely, Dmitry -- Atlantis ISP, System Administrator e-mail: dmitry@atlantis.dp.ua nic-hdl: LYNX-RIPE

Until 4.8 is officially announced, what you see is only some files that *may* turn out to be 4.8-RELEASE, but could just as easily be wiped and replaced with something different. Put another way: no matter what you see, 4.8-RELEASE does not currently exist. -- Kirk Strauser In Googlis non est, ergo non est. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I just noticed that the "4.8-Release" has populated the mirror servers around the world. I think this is the final, even though RE has not acknoledge it ... What are the chances of droping the tag, making some changes, and repopulating the FTP mirrors .. SLIM .. if there is any further issues with "4.8-Release" ...the problems with be noted in the Errata ... and patches would be release instead of making changes to the the one on the FTP server. I am not a FreeBSD guru, nor I am on the development team ... so this is just my assumpions ... that may happen to be correct. :))) --- Marcel Moolenaar <marcel@xcllnt.net> wrote:> On Tue, Apr 01, 2003 at 07:44:31PM -0800, Georgi > Hristov wrote: > > > > So what is it ... yes, no, maybe ... :) > > Indeed :-) > > -- > Marcel Moolenaar USPA: A-39004marcel@xcllnt.net __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

And adding tags to the whole tree is a very expensive process, not only for the master CVS server but for every one of the thousands of mirrored CVS archives around the globe and the poor bloody official CVS mirrors that have to distribute those thousands of updates. It's not something to be done lightly.
