Planning a personalized release of FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT

• Kernel

As the FreeBSD 5.2.1 approaching its release day, I begun to think about the possiblity of having a personal customized release.

It’s not too hard for me, and also valuable because the FreeBSD Release Engineering Team has restricted the changes in a point release to be mainly “critical bugfixes only”.

悟到一个人生的哲理。。。

• Diary Excerpt

看到Julian Elisher的一段话:
