updated software

[Simonas K.]

Hello,

I've just finished reading FreeBSD/i386 4.8-RELEASE release notes. 
(http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.8R/relnotes-i386.html)

I've missed the versions of contributed software,from which that 
software was upgraded, like 

    "BIND has been updated to version 8.3.4.". 

By looking at it I wonder from WHICH version it was upgraded. 
I mean, that's only for convenience, for easier comparisons and 
further expertise of the efficiency of the expected system upgrade. 

I am also able to find out the versions of the software manually, 
but it would be much easier to make decisions just by looking at 
the two points of specific software developement while having most 
common bugs/features in mind:)

thanks for listening
