New FreeBSD development branch installation ISOs and virtual machine disk images have been uploaded to the FTP mirrors. (Note: The build date is wrong, these were built on 20160610.) As with any development branch, the installation snapshots are not intended for use on production systems. We do, however, encourage testing on non-production systems as much as possible. Please also consider installing the sysutils/panicmail port, which can help in providing FreeBSD developers the necessary information regarding system crashes.
