Doesn't the notion of using anything "bleeding edge" sort of go against the fundamental law of production? Doesn't development sound like a much better fit for getting to know Current and the future of FreeBSD? I wouldn't speak for anyone else, but my ideal production environment is one where no one even thinks about the operating system, because it wasn't broken before, still isn't broken, and is expected to keep on not being broken; it just does its thing. Because whatever production is doing that is critical, it isn't system operating, it is something else, some big data manipulation, database something, or application crunching or generating something or people using the systems to produce. Maybe others have been more fortunate, but I've never had much success fixing something that isn't broken. What is the downside to using Stable, or maybe even... Stable from two whole number versions ago? Honestly, adding features to production is, as a grey beard once said to me, paraphrasing, as useless as nailing jelly to a bull, or something along those lines.
