+<h1>Introduction</h1>
+
+<p>This is a specific schedule for the release of FreeBSD 5.1. For
+ more general information about the release engineering process,
+ please see the <a href="&base;/releng/index.html">Release
+ Engineering</a> section of the web site.</p>
+
+<p>General discussions about the release engineering process or
+ quality assurance issues should be sent to the public <a
+ href="mailto:FreeBSD-qa@FreeBSD.org">FreeBSD-qa</a> mailing list.
+ <a
+ href="&base;/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/misc.html#DEFINE-MFC">MFC</a>
+ requests should be sent to <a
+ href="mailto:re@FreeBSD.org">re@FreeBSD.org</a>.</p>
+
+<p>One of the major features of FreeBSD 5.1 will be further refinement of
+ the re-worked SMP support introduced in FreeBSD 5.0. For specific
+ information about the progress towards 5.1-RELEASE in this area, please
+ see the <a href="&base;/smp/index.html">SMP Project</a> page.</p>
+
+<p>FreeBSD 5.1 will continue to be released from the 5-CURRENT development
+ stream. For more details about the milestones for reaching
+ 5-STABLE, see the <a href="&base;/doc/en/articles/5-roadmap">5-STABLE
+ Roadmap</a> page.</p>
+
+<p>The current release engineering <a
+ href="&base;/releases/5.1R/todo.html">TODO list</a> is also available.
+ This list is updated periodically through the release cycle.</p>
