Agreed. But if, say, you were tracking specific svn revisions rather than just jumping to the latest, I *guess* it might involve 8 separate builds? I certainly prefer one, batched downtime event to address across all affected systems, regardless of binary updates or src, and I imagine most other individuals/companies/organizations do, too. -- Matt _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
