Howdy,
I'd just like to thank the FreeBSD team for an outstanding job.
I've got a FreeBSD-current system in production running an Intranet that has
just exceeded one year's uptime. Admittedly, the snapshot I built was
30/10/2000, but it does go to show that current can indeed be used

Don't. ACL's are still not production
be for a technically sound reason, I know, but that
still makes it a pain.
I would run unionfs on a 3-stable production box before running
-current in production right now.

PS: You could also make a management decision to hire a kernel hacker
to work on the part of -current that you need
as there now is almost only talk about sound and ata drivers in this
list, would it be adviseable to use a current-snap on a server machine
(apache,samba,ftp) without need for sound and ata drivers (box with
aic-scsi-only drives)?
The integrated gcc-2.95.2 is so handy and current does all i
gcc-2.95.2 is so handy and current does all i want on my
private box anyway.
I think you'd have better luck asking people what their experiences with
the software have been, rather than asking for a recommendation. No one
is likely to want to take the responsibility of recommending -current
I'm inclined to agree. I have had great luck in production boxes with
FreeBSD-CURRENT, but it's not reccomended to use -CURRENT for production
just because sometimes things break. :-)
