FreeBSD-5.4 Release Cycle starting in 1 week.

[Ken Smith]

The FreeBSD-5.4 Release Cycle will begin with a code freeze one week
from today (March 2, 2005).  Since the Developers tend to be a bit
more active during the week before a code freeze and the development
branch can be a bit less stable than normal due to the extra activity
we will mark the RELENG_5 branch as being 5.4-PRERELEASE later today.

Details of the release cycle are at:

  http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.4R/schedule.html

The highlights are:

	March 2:	Code Freeze
	March 4:	First public test build
	March 18:	RC1
	March 25:	RC2
	April 4:	Release

The schedule is of course dependent on how well things go with the first
and second Release Candidates.  If needed there will be more RCs and the
Release date will be bumped accordingly.
