a file version number going down after upgrade from 6.0-R to 6.0-S
hello, i noticed, when upgrading from 6.0-R to 6-stable, that /etc/rc.d/wpa_supplicant version went down. until now i had believed that stable branch contains newer software than the release. if so, why this "downgrade" ?? martin

The former is created after the latter. It's not a downgrade as RELENG_6_0 is created after RELENG_6 (hence 4 vs 2), and everything merged to RELENG_6_0 must be part of RELENG_6 before it happen.
