The release builds for 7.3 started moments ago. Ken Smith updated the ”newvers.sh” file, which mentions 7.3-RELEASE. This means that the official schedule will be followed, telling us that the release will be announced on the 23rd. Ofcourse if you cannot wait you might be able to pick up the required bits already from svn (releng/7.3 or release/7.3.0) or via CVS (RELENG_7_3 or RELENG_7_3_0_RELEASE) and start building.
My remaining 7-x webservers will be updated as soon as possible to 7.3 probably somewhere this week, so that we are one of the first hosts running on the official 7.3-release 
..
In advance, let us thanks the FreeBSD Development team, and the Release Engineering team for bringing yet another perfect release!

I upgrade 18 web-servers to FreeBSD 7.3 , I am sure not many webhosts run 7.3 yet.
Well, I hope that many people will run it. My primairy webserver got migrated yesterday. Or at least, the final reboot that was required was yesterday
. Sadly I do not yet own that many webservers which I can upgrade, but at least we eat our own dogfood and it tastes very OK!
