Hello Alexander,

It is RELENG_6 and I cvsup and build daily.  I clean libraries,  
includes and reboot every 10 days, more or less.  It is pretty up to  
date.

I have decided to go to current, using a cd, probably this weekend.   
This is my last RELENG_6 box so I don't really need to keep it  
anymore.  I'm building a release on a current box right now and will  
build another tomorrow to have a couple of cd's just in case ;).

Thanks,
