Hi FreeBSD -STABLE users, I've just posted the schedule for FreeBSD 15.1 to the FreeBSD website. It's the normal minor-release schedule (although given how 15.0 went I suspect it will be a relatively bumpy minor release with more pkgbase changes landing) with the release scheduled for June 2nd, six months after 15.0.
