Hi there,
I am no FreeBSD developer, but I think that if there is
a schedule ( thanks FreeBSD's developer, You are most serious !!)
which, as you could see, was often updated, then
they will not spend extra time/mails to make other timeline guess.
I think that's already great ( in other communities you got no
sort of schedule or in depth report of status ).....
We need to be patient, even though as for a mail from Scott Long
dated 26-Oct-2004, we can smile at:

Please continue to test RC1. At this point I'm not going to promise a
particular date for 5.3-RELEASE, but I would expect it in the next 7-10
days assuming nothing else significant comes up.
Scott

soon big party ! :)
