-release.

+information.

+ feature, the file server and other functionality
+ from Samba 3.6 as well as the new SMB3 protocol.
Note that it is a given that the Samba-Team will continue to track
-Windows (NT/200x) update releases, ensuring that Samba will work
-well with whatever "Beta" releases Redmond throws our way :-).
-
-You may also note that the release numbers get fuzzier the
-further into the future the objectives get. This is intentional
-as we cannot yet commit to exact timeframes.
+Windows releases, ensuring that Samba will work
+well with whatever releases Redmond throws our way :-).
