FreeBSD 5.2.1 RC Ready For Getting

Posted by Hemos on from the get-more-of-it dept.

MobyTurbo writes "FreeBSD 5.2.1 RC is now available, and now can be downloaded from the FreeBSD site and mirrors, or if you are currently running FreeBSD 5.2 (or for that matter some earlier versions) you can simply cvsup to it. The upcoming 5.2.1 release should fix a number of outstanding bugs in the 5.2 release, and this is a chance to make sure those bugs get fixed!"

    This is getting fairly rediculous. Slashdot is turning into web based version tracking software.

    I understand how major releases of software is what is termed "news for nerds", but do we need to submit every single update to every single piece of software that is of slight interest? Can I remind everyone this isn't even a release, but a Release Candidate?

    What significance does this have? People wanting bugfixes will absorp them via ports/pkg_add anyway, regardless of these useless posts.
