Default FreeBSD supported branches update

From a mail by the FreeBSD security officer http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/f...ry/005555.html

Quote:
Hello Everyone,

The branches supported by the FreeBSD Security Officer have been updated
to reflect the EoL (end-of-life) of FreeBSD 6.3. The new list is below
and at <URL: http://security.freebsd.org/ >.

Users of FreeBSD 6.3 are advised to upgrade promptly to a newer release,
either by downloading an updated source tree and building updates manually,
or (for i386 and amd64 systems) using the FreeBSD Update utility as
described in the relevant release announcement.

The upcoming FreeBSD 7.3-RELEASE will receive Extended support, i.e., it
will be supported until early 2012.
