<h2>December 1998</h2>
<ul>
<li><p><b>28-Dec-98</b>
Unless circumstances dictate otherwise, FreeBSD 3.0 will depart
the -CURRENT branch late in the day on 15 January 1999. The 3.1
release will follow 30 days later, on 15 February 1999.
Developers should consider this as ADVANCE NOTICE of these
events.</p></li>
<li><p><b>13-Dec-98</b>
Walnut Creek CDROM has opened the <a
href="http://www.freebsdmall.com/">FreeBSD Mall</a>, a site
devoted to the commercial aspects of FreeBSD, including add-ons,
hardware, and commercial tech-support. To advertise or sell your
products or services at the FreeBSD Mall, contact BSDi.</p></li>
</ul>
<h2>November 1998</h2>

<li><p><b>30-Nov-98</b>
<a href="&base;/releases/2.2.8R/announce.html">FreeBSD 2.2.8</a>
has been released. Please see the <a
href="&base;/releases/index.html">Release Information</a> page for
more details. Also be sure to check the <a
href="&base;/releases/2.2.8R/errata.html">release errata</a> after
installation for any late-breaking issues with 2.2.8 that you
might need to be aware of.</p></li>
<li><p><b>26-Nov-98</b>
<a href="http://www.freebsdrocks.com/">FreeBSD Rocks</a> is an
initiative designed to provide the FreeBSD community with the
latest FreeBSD news, software and resources. All areas include
search facilities, making keyword searching of historical posts
a breeze. The pages are updated daily and everyone is invited to
sign up an post an article. If it happened today, you'll see it
on FreeBSDRocks.</p></li>
</ul>
<h2>October 1998</h2>
<ul>
<li><p><b>15-Oct-98</b>
<a href="&base;/releases/3.0R/announce.html">FreeBSD 3.0</a> has

</ul>
<h2>September 1998</h2>
<ul>
<li><p><b>15-Sep-98</b>
September 15th is the scheduled date for entering BETA with the
3.0-CURRENT tree. As all of you already (should) know, 3.0 is
scheduled for release on October 15th so this gives us a nice 30
day BETA period. During this time, I don't expect anyone to drop
in significant new work or otherwise perturb the 3.0-CURRENT tree
in such a way that violates the general idea of a BETA (you're
supposed to test what you have, not move the goalposts every
couple of days :).</p></li>
<li><p><b>13-Sep-98</b>
After more than a year of development, the Common Access Method
SCSI layer for FreeBSD will be integrated into 3.0-CURRENT on
Sunday, September 13th. The CAM development team is currently
busy ensuring that the integration process goes as smoothly as
possible, so please understand that we may be slow to respond to
questions about CAM during that time.</p></li>
<li><p><b>09-Sep-98</b>
Perl5 is now imported into the 3.0-CURRENT source
tree.</p></li>
<li><p><b>05-Sep-98</b>
<a name="giveaway" href="http://visar.csustan.edu/">The BSD CD
Giveaway List</a>. If somebody has a CD to give away (recipient

address on the list. Hardware and literature can also be given
away. We encourage people to donate CDs to local libraries and
put them on the list as well.</p></li>

<h2>August 1998</h2>

<li><p><b>31-Aug-98</b>
FreeBSD -CURRENT branch (the future 3.0-RELEASE) has switched to
ELF from a.out format. People involved did a great job;
transition went smooth. Check the <a
href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/search/search.html">freebsd-current@FreeBSD.org</a>

a free shell account as a participant in the testdrive program,

for playing, the goal of the program is to make brand new systems
available to developers so they can test, build and port their
