Remko Lodder: FreeBSD RELENG_8 created

Published on August 4, 2009 in 8.0, FreeBSD, FreeBSD 8.0 and RELEASE. Closed

Yesterday Ken Smith created the RLENG_8, which is required before being able to release any 8.x version at all. This is the first step that will finally lead up to BETA3, after which RC1 is planned. Beta3 also marks the end of the “liberal” ‘ok we still allow some new features if they had previously been discussed’. No more new features will be inserted when BETA3 becomes live. I will try to make a nice list of what’s new for 8.0 the moment BETA3 is tagged. The release is one step closer again!
