I think you are making this sound worse than it is. Often new versions of perl modules are released to fix only very minor issues or even non-issues. In those cases we generally don't update our port. So being out of date does not necessarily mean in bad shape. And as Nikolay said, there are many perl ports which a lot of other ports depend on (hint: make show-required-by). These dependent ports need to be tested as well to make sure they are not broken. This all takes time, and should be worth it. steven Disclaimer: http://www.kuleuven.be/cwis/email_disclaimer.htm
