At first glance the -stable tree could be misunderstood as -release + errata. After careful reading it's evident that -release + errata != -stable I feel such a mistake could be attributable to the first bulleted list in stable.html The first two items are similar enough that one might think that applying the errata patches to the -release tree is equivalent to "cvs checkout -rOPENBSD_4_1" Since there isn't any indication for what to call the code base which is -release + errata, -stable could be mistakenly understood as -release + errata when it is in fact not. In my opinion in order to clearly define the boundary between "-stable" and "-release + errata": 1) The code defined by "-release +errata" needs a name 2) Obtaining the -stable code needs to stressed as only attainable through CVS Do these ideas make sense? I'm just trying to clear up any possible pitfalls in understanding this aspect of OpenBSD. Thanks
