6.0 Migration Guide?
Does anyone have a pointer to a FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE Migration Guide? Even a draft? I googled and looked in http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.0R/ with no luck. The 5.4 one is very nice.

Migration Guide
Hi Have I missed something -- I do not see any notes for source upgrade from 5.3 to 5.4 in the Migration guide. There see notes on upgrade 4.x to 5.x. Are the procedures notes to be found elsewhere?

The release notes for 5-STABLE and 6-CURRENT have no references to the Migration Guide. There used to be some boiler-plate references to src/UPDATING but they were probably removed during those releases where the Migration Guide existed. Some suitably motivated doc committer could update them if necessary and bring them back. Note that the Migration Guide was intended to address concerns of users upgrading from 4.X to 5.X. This is implied in its abstract and is specifically stated in the introduction. Bruce.
