14.2. Who needs FreeBSD-current?

FreeBSD-current is made generally available for 3 primary interest groups:

1. Members of the FreeBSD group who are actively working on some part of the source tree and for whom keeping `current' is an absolute requirement.

2. Members of the FreeBSD group who are active testers, willing to spend time working through problems in order to ensure that FreeBSD-current remains as sane as possible. These are also people who wish to make topical suggestions on changes and the general direction of FreeBSD.

3. Peripheral members of the FreeBSD (or some other) group who merely wish to keep an eye on things and use the current sources for reference purposes (e.g. for reading, not running). These people also make the occasional comment or contribute code.
