Handbook for upcoming 12.0 release

Although a number of beta's and now a RC1 version of the upcoming 12.0 release have been published, I can't seem to find corresponding Handbook versions for them. Looking at the SVN commits for the Handbook, I don't see that many changes, hence I presume things will roughly work the same. However it would still be convenient to be able to browse through a pre-release version Handbook before testing RC1 (or RC2, RC3 however many may come out). Anyone know where I can find these (if they exist at all)?

I do know you can built it yourself, but I haven't got a FreeBSD installation at hand to set the build environment up
 
That's assuming there is a pre-release ;) My guess is that they'll only change some version numbers and perhaps add a new section if there are any specific new features to address but other than that it'll be mostly the same. Because essentially not that much is going to change.
 
Note that the release notes might still change, although I don't expect any major differences until the release.

There is only one handbook. It's not depended on the version.

Thing is, the first sentence in the Handbook does mention a version specifically: Welcome to FreeBSD! This handbook covers the installation and day to day use of FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE.

Make sense. 11.2 is the actual stable production release of FreeBSD. Take a look at the development notes here.
