<b>From:</b> "Jordan K. Hubbard" <jkh@time.cdrom.com><br/>
<b>Subject:</b> 2.2.6 RELEASE now available from ftp.freebsd.org (and some mirrors)</p>
<p>As always, it's my great pleasure to announce the release of
FreeBSD 2.2.6, our latest release on the 2.2-stable branch and the
result of over 4 months of work since 2.2.5 was released. See the <a
href="notes.html">release notes</a> for a list of significant changes
since the previous release.</p>
<p>FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE is available on <a
href="ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD">ftp.freebsd.org</a> and
various <a href="&base;/handbook/mirrors.html">FTP mirror sites</a>
throughout the world. It can also be ordered on CD from <a
href="http://www.cdrom.com/">Walnut Creek CDROM</a>, from where it
will be shipping shortly as a 4 CD set containing a lot of extra stuff
of interest to the programmer and general user alike.</p>
