Compile errors are likely to be your fault, so please don't send-pr
about them.  If you need help after searching the archives for similar
problems, please post here instead.

No. We can't help you with your errors though unless you tell use what 
they are.

The RELENG_5 branch is alive, but will probably be somewhat quiet compared 
to 6.x.  I've been merging netperf changes to 5.x where possible, for 
example, but the definition of "possible" is constrained by compatibility 
requirements.  I anticipate continuing to do so, subject to time and 
compatibility concerns.  My hope is to see fairly rapid adoption of 6.x, 
although it's not yet clear to me how the first month or so of bug reports 
will go for it yet.

You don't have to, but you might want to.  It's got improvements and is
clearly the way forward.

Which branch?

2005-10-19 Thread Daniel Molina Wegener

Hello,

   My computer is running with FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE. I've tried
updating the source tree with RELENG_5, but I get some compile
time errors.

   Is the RELENG_5 branch abandoned?

   Also, I must download the RELENG_6 branch (6-STABLE) and contribute
to this branch?.

   Thanks...

Regards
