Subject: [FreeBSD-Announce] Announcing FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE
I am happy to announce the availability of FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE, the
latest release of the FreeBSD -STABLE development branch. Since
FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE in October 2003 we have made conservative updates
to a number of software programs in the base system, dealt with known
security issues, and made many bugfixes.
For a complete list of new features, known problems, and late-breaking
news, please see the release notes and errata list, available here:
http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/4.10R/relnotes.html
http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/4.10R/errata.html
FreeBSD 4.10 will become the first "Errata Branch". Release branches
for previous versions of FreeBSD would only have critical security
fixes applied. With FreeBSD 4.10 the scope of fixes will be expanded to
include local Denial of Service fixes as well as other significant and
well-tested fixes that may not represent security issues.
The current plans are for one more FreeBSD 4.X release which will be
FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE. It is expected the upcoming FreeBSD 5.3 release
will have reached the maturity level most users will be able to migrate
to 5.X. Most developer resources continue to be devoted to the 5.X
branch.
For more information about FreeBSD release engineering activities,
please see:

Availability
------------
FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE supports the i386 and alpha architectures and can
be installed directly over the net, using bootable media, or copied to a
local NFS/FTP server. Distributions for both architectures are available
now.
Please continue to support the FreeBSD Project by purchasing media
from one of our supporting vendors. The following companies will be
offering FreeBSD 4.10 based products:
FreeBSD Mall, Inc. http://www.freebsdmall.com/
Daemonnews, Inc. http://www.bsdmall.com/freebsd1.html
If you can not afford FreeBSD on media, are impatient, or just want to
use it for evangelism purposes, then by all means download the ISO
images. We can not promise that all the mirror sites will carry the
larger ISO images, but they will at least be available from the
following sites. MD5 checksums for the release images are included at
the bottom of this message.
