6.3-RC2 Available

[Ken Smith]

Sorry for the delay with this phase of the 6.3 release.  A few glitches
were found during testing of the 6.3-RC2 ISOs that included pre-built
packages.

The 6.3-RC2 builds for amd64 and i386 should now be available on the
majority of the FreeBSD mirror sites.  I just finished loading the
sparc64 build so that will take a little while to propagate to the
mirrors.  This is the last planned RC for 6.3.  Unless a major
show-stopper problem is found the release of 6.3 should happen in about
two weeks.

If updating an older system using cvs or c[v]sup based mechanisms the
branch tag to use is RELENG_6_3.  Or you can give FreeBSD Update a try,
see the instructions here:

http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2007-11-10-freebsd-minor-version-upgrade.html

If you would like to test doing a fresh install ISOs for each <arch> are
available at:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/<arch>/ISO-IMAGES/6.3/

(or any of the mirror sites).
