Fbsd is great. long live 4.xx
Bleh! The different libtool versions are really killing my experience on Freebie. Damn, and FreeBSD was on my favorite OS up until this.
Yeah, all 5-6-CURRENT, 5-STABLE and 4-LEGACY are really great! 🙂
Good for FreeBSD!
Now let’s couple that with the fatest DB!
But what is the fastest DB ???
Have any impressions?
appreciate.
There is nothing in 4.11 TODO list? It means there are no critical bugs? Well, thats good. Or nobody is testing it because 5.3 was released not so long ago..
Shouldn’t these release candidates be labelled Beta? A Release Candidate clearly means something that has the potential of being released (hence the word release candidate.) It means if everything goes well, this is the copy you are going to get. That’s why I don’t get why they are called Release Candidates. If you are planning three “Release Candidates” from the get go, then the first release is not a release candidate. There is no chance that it will be the official release or even close to it. I’m not saying that you can’t have multiple release candidates. If they were meaning to go live after RC1, but found lots of bugs, they definately will be correct to label something newer as RC2. But having 3 planned release candidates is completely wrong.
This sums it all up nicely.
