-TARGET AUDIENCE:
-----------------
-This release is aimed primarily at early-adopters and the various
-other folks who want to get involved with the ongoing development
-of FreeBSD and are willing to deal with a few bumps in the road.
-We do our best to ensure that each snapshot works as advertised,
-but tracking -stable is a process which sometimes has its off
-days.
-
-If you're both technically proficient and know exactly what you're
-getting into here (e.g. you've been following -stable) then this
-snapshot is probably for you. If you're more interested in doing
-business with FreeBSD than in playing with the cutting edge of
-technology, however, then 3.5 or one of the 4.x releases is almost
-certainly your best bet.

Most information here is also available from the Documentation menu
during installation.
