Dear all , Instead of using Current and then renaming everything for a new version number , is it not possible to use the newest version number in place of Current when it is branched . Such a change will prevent unnecessary renaming problems . For everyone , it i very easy to understand that 10.0 is the latest , therefore the current one . The current may be used as a symbolic link to the newest version number , such as used by Debian . For example , for FreeBSD 9.0 RC1 , the ports directory name was ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages-9-current/Latest/ which is NOT available now , and pkg_add -r * is giving error about directory not found . This is preventing testing and / or using efforts . I know , it is possible to rename local link names , but everyone is not so much knowledgeable . Thank you very much .
