    Hi there,

    I am no FreeBSD developer, but I think that if there is
    a schedule ( thanks FreeBSD's developer, You are most serious !!)
    which, as you could see, was often updated, then
    they will not spend extra time/mails to make other timeline guess.
    I think that's already great ( in other communities you got no
    sort of schedule or in depth report of status ).....
    We need to be patient, even though as for a mail from Scott Long
    dated 26-Oct-2004, we can smile at:

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    .....skip

    Please continue to test RC1. At this point I'm not going to promise a
    particular date for 5.3-RELEASE, but I would expect it in the next 7-10
    days assuming nothing else significant comes up.

    Scott

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    soon big party ! :)
