Hi those eagerly awaiting,
Re-read Eitan's post of Sun, 9 Dec 2012 09:04:25 -0500 (15:04 CET)

Those with knowledge, time & enthusiasm can already build
their own 9.1-RELEASE from released public sources.  No longer need to wait.

As I wrote 3 local friends Fri, 07 Dec 2012 08:37:20 +0100

Clue to a quick check with CVS is/was
        grep RELENG_9_1_0_RELEASE /usr/cvs/src/Makefile,v
        grep RELEASE_9_1_0 /usr/cvs/ports/Makefile,v
but as CVS is about to disappear, what's a quick check for svn ?

Compliments to re@ team who have doubtless been working very hard,
probably on a problematic cluster base.  Hopefully there'll be less
"When ?" questions that might distract re@, now people realise it's
tagged & you can build yourself if you're in a rush.

ports/ is also tagged & available:
        From: Thomas Abthorpe <portmgr-secret...@freebsd.org>
        Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2012 19:59:09 +0000
        To: po...@freebsd.org
(though no tag for that yet in preceeding cvs-cur 19073 )

Those who want this lot must wait till announcement (a few days I guess)
          binaries compiled at freebsd.org
        + for all architectures, 
        + packages build on freebsd.org cluster
        + docs 
        + iso's built
        + all ftp'd from master server to mirror servers globaly
        + Release Notes written by re@ team who are doubtless
          tired, & working flat out ;-)
        + all of that work to be done on a freebsd cluster that was 
          compromised & needed to be checked before the relase rolled,

Cheers,
Julian
