<p>FreeBSD <a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.1.5-RELEASE">
|
|
2.1.5-RELEASE</a> is now available on ftp.FreeBSD.org and various
|
|
FTP mirror sites throughout the world. It can also be ordered on
|
|
<a href="http://www.cdrom.com/titles/freebsd.html">CD</a> from
|
|
<a href="http://www.cdrom.com/">Walnut Creek CDROM</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>FreeBSD 2.1.5 represents the culmination of over a year's worth of
|
|
work on the <a href="/handbook/stable.html">2.1-STABLE</a> branch of
|
|
FreeBSD since it began with FreeBSD 2.0.5. In the 7 months since 2.1
|
|
was released, many bug fixes, updates and careful enhancements
|
|
have been made, the results of which you now see here.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The STABLE branch was conceived out of the need to allow FreeBSD to
|
|
grow and support long-term development projects (like devfs, NFSv3,
|
|
IPX, PCCARD, etc.) while at the same time not jeopardizing the
|
|
stability of its existing user base. FreeBSD 2.1.5 marks the finishing
|
|
point for that effort and, barring any small "slipstream" releases done
|
|
to solve significant problems, no further releases along the 2.1-STABLE
|
|
branch are anticipated. The concept of "stable" and "experimental"
|
|
tracks is not being abandoned, we'll simply be doing this somewhat
|
|
differently in the future.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For more information on the 2.1.5 release itself, please consult the
|
|
