Just in case people have stopped reading -stable due to SNR issues :)

(I assume Jordan will send out another message saying when the RC4 iso is fully there along with the MD5 of it)

------- start of forwarded message ------- From: Jordan Hubbard <jk@osd.bsdi.com> Subject: HEADS UP: 3 more days until 4.3-RELEASE To: sta@freebsd.org Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2001 11:48:59 -0700

Since all my messages to date have been about delays, I figured I should send something which dealt with the opposite problem: A looming release date! :) We're on target for a 4.3-RELEASE date of April 20th, on roughly friday evening PST.

The 4.3-RC4 release is also going up on ftp.freebsd.org as we speak (both ISO and ftp installable directory) into the usual URL of:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/

With alpha bits to follow in the ../alpha/ directory some time tomorrow.

All the packages and whatnot are known to be "good" in these Release Candidates, so please test them with an eye towards providing us wrong here. :)

The only "known holes" in this RC4 image have to do with the globbing and random sequence number stuff that Kris still has in his queue - those are purely security related and there shouldn't be any functional impact for the actual usability testing of these bits, so please test 'em! Thanks!
