[9fans] lots of binaries

[9fans] lots of binaries

[Russ Cox]

When you do your next pull, every binary
on your system will be updated.
(You can also use the "bleeding edge" update CD on
the updates web page, after it gets regenerated
tomorrow morning at 5am EST; it's probably
less to download.)

The binaries all changed because hardly any of
them had been recompiled since the fmt library
fixes (posted on October 18 to 9fans) went in.

Going forward, we will be running "mk release"
for every architecture every night, both to make
sure that everything builds and to catch binaries
that are out of date.

Yes.

It happens every morning at 5:00 US East Coast time
(currently 10:00 GMT, until we change our clocks in April).
Usually it takes under an hour, so it's done by 6:00,
but today it didn't finish until 9:00 (14:00 GMT).

Is there any information on the page about date of update CD ?
At what time (GMT) regular update occurs ? (11:46 -4 GMT ?)

P.S. Sorry for bad English.
