+
+          <p>The FreeBSD-STABLE branch of the source tree has now been
+            frozen in <a
+            href="$base/releases/4.6R/schedule.html">preparation</a>
+            for the release of FreeBSD 4.6.  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 4.6 is June 1, 2002.</p>
