I do not agree on this one. RELENG_8_0 is the correct tag for following FreeBSD 8.0 with security fixes. RELENG_8_0_0_RELEASE on the other hand is fixed. RELENG_8_1 will be the branch for FreeBSD 8.1. -- chs, _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
