<h1>Introduction</h1>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This is a specific schedule for the release of FreeBSD 5.3. For
|
||||
more general information about the release engineering process,
|
||||
please see the <a href="&base;/releng/index.html">Release
|
||||
Engineering</a> section of the web site.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>General discussions about the release engineering process or
|
||||
quality assurance issues should be sent to the public <a
|
||||
href="mailto:FreeBSD-qa@FreeBSD.org">FreeBSD-qa</a> mailing list.
|
||||
<a
|
||||
href="&base;/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/misc.html#DEFINE-MFC">MFC</a>
|
||||
requests should be sent to <a
|
||||
href="mailto:re@FreeBSD.org">re@FreeBSD.org</a>.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>FreeBSD 5.3 will be the first release from the RELENG_5 branch and thus
|
||||
will also be the first 5-STABLE release.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The current release engineering <a
|
||||
href="&base;/releases/5.3R/todo.html">TODO list</a> is also available.
