I think you're confused by terminology.  As I understand it, the
ports tree is supported on -CURRENT and the latest -STABLE series:
that is, currently on 6.x and 7.x (and possibly 5.x still since
RELENG_5 and RELENG_6 were both being released for a while), but not
RELENG_4 or earlier.

So my question remains when we have 7.0 and 6.3 both STABLE releases
will the ports tree not be supported in 6.3 a just released version of
FreeBSD?
