Similarly, I'm a bit concerned that 9.0 loses support at the end of
January, but there is no release date for 9.1 (at
http://www5.us.freebsd.org/releases/9.1R/schedule.html, the last actual
date shown is November 3, 2012, for RC3). I'm confused as to the best
course of action: continue to use an unsupported version and hope the
new one comes out sooner than later, or downgrade to a supported version
(8.3).
I know FreeBSD is free and community-supported, but this still seems a
bit... improper? Right now I'm only dealing with personal machines (and
nothing truly vital at that), but I am formulating plans to use FreeBSD
commercially and this makes me uneasy.
