People who collect ISO images from more than just the FreeBSD Project have been mentioning it would be nice if "FreeBSD" was part of the filenames for a while now. I just committed a change to head that will add "FreeBSD-" to the beginning of the filenames. So for example 9.0-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso becomes FreeBSD-9.0-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso As part of the commit I set a 1-week MFC timer and at that point I will MFC the change to all of the branches we currently target for the Monthly Snapshots (so all the way back to stable/6). That way the filenames will be consistent for all the images generated for the January 2010 Monthly Snapshots. -- Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodore Geisel | -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

This change will allow also inclusion of these file names in internet search lists . Thank you very much . Mehmet Erol Sanliturk

We just started working out a schedule for 7.3-RELEASE, I should be sending that out some time next week. -- Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodore Geisel | -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
