I’ve updated my cvsupgrade and makeworld scripts to automatically check the version of OpenBSD running. I’ve personally tested this on 5.0 and 5.1-release.
The process to update from release to stable is as easy as running cvsupgrade as root, rebooting, then running makeworld as root and rebooting.
WordPress seems to format text in a weird way, so I’ve uploaded this scripts to pastebin.com.
