I don't want this to sound like a "is it ready yet?" email, but as we are rolling out some new servers in the next months I'd like to get some idea of whether it is time for us to start testing hardware and configurations against current, ready for deployment in the not distant future. In particular I am very interested in the excellent improvements for SMP and mysql performance. I understand that response 'version 7 will be released when it is ready', but looking at recent cvs commit messages I can't quite see the pattern of what new features are still going in and what is now bug fixes for release. I have some questions: * The bug reports at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi don't seem to correlate with activity on current. Is there a separate bug tracker so that users like myself can see what known bugs remain prior to release? Other open source projects I am affiliated with (for example those at Apache) use bug tracking databases in this way. * Is there a set release schedule and known bugs notes for snapshots? I'd like to try a snapshot but I don't know whether to wait a day/ week/month for the next one. Or are they released just when someone thinks the source is in a good overall state?
