well it may certainly be worth running on a test box to learn the new
features, but even then you'd be better of catching -current at a stable spot
and dealing with the vagaries that that involves. A good way is to cvsup
your source, and watch the -current mailing list for a day to see that no
major instabilities are reported. Then rebuild. Or you could download a
-current iso from:
http://snapshots.jp.freebsd.org/
Good luck,
