decided to try and assist Bill by providing this interim "cleanup"

Where to from here? Well, we intend to release FreeBSD 2.1 sometime
in September of 1995 and have reasonable expectations that it will
meet or exceed all of the standards for quality we set with FreeBSD
1.1.5.1 back in July of 1994. From there, we'll probably go to a
two-track scheme with a "stable" branch of FreeBSD and an
"experimental" branch, where development can continue at its usually
rapid pace without penalizing those who just want a stable, working
system without too much excitement. We also intend to focus on any
remaining areas of weakness, like documentation or missing drivers,
and steadily increase the overall quality and feature set of the
system well into 1996 and beyond.
