I'm about to start installing a whole new set of machines for production use with 6.0 on them. Normally I would just use -RELEASE, but as this is a dot-nought release I was wondering if there is anything vital which has been commited to stable, and if I should therefore sun the machines under stable instead. I havent seen anything go past which I regard as critical, though somebody did make a mention of some arp problem being fixed, which I could find a reference to the original problem for. Anything I need to know ? Am running release on a couple of machines here and it works fine for me so far, but always good to get other opinions. -pcf.
