<title>FreeBSD-stable tree frozen in preparation for 4.5</title>
<p>The FreeBSD-stable branch of the source tree has now been
frozen in preparation for the release of FreeBSD 4.5. This means
that any new commits to the -stable source tree must be approved
by the release engineering team first. Our expected "ship" date
for 4.5 is January 20th, 2002.</p>

<title>"Backports" site, with patches for older FreeBSD
releases</title>
<p><a href="http://www.visi.com/~hawkeyd/freebsd-backports.html">The
FreeBSD Backports Collection</a> is a new site created by
D J Hawkey Jr. It contains patches that appeared in
FreeBSD-stable that have not yet been merged in to older
releases. Wider testing of these patches makes it more likely
that they will be committed to earlier FreeBSD releases. So if
your site relies on earlier releases of FreeBSD, and, for whatever
reason, you do not wish to update to the most recent release,
you are encouraged to visit this site frequently.</p>
