-Stable periodic updates
It turns out that I have downloaded FreeBSD 8.2-stable as the repository, so I guess you no longer need to update the ports and src, as you would a regular basis, the problem is that I have not found such a manual on the web, so how are regular updates in-STABLE?, just download everything from cvsup and ready?, will not have to do the same thing to convert releases in stable right?, because I mean regular updates.

Even when installing a major component like kde4. If you have your base system set up correctly this very complex task will generally complete flawlessly. For a first-time install you can accept most of the default options when configuring, but it's probably not a good idea to just blindly accept every default. Experiment with the different port management software until you find something which you like. Read the documentation about dealing with common issues, making backups, saving compiler/ installation errors, etc. If you are having many problems with ports which require few dependencies, you may have a non-ports related issue of some kind.

It's a waste of time to compile these very large suites and most of the time you will get the config options wrong, and they take forever to compile. Exceptions: 1) You need language-specific settings. Example: OpenOffice in German. 2) You need others than the default options, e. g. if you want to include or exclude some stuff. Example: OpenOffice without KDE. 3) You need options to be set at compile time that do differ from the default options from which the binary packages are made, or because of artificially shit in your pants legal requirements and restrictions. Example: mplayer with mencoder and all (!) codecs 4) You need to speed up things to make them run on older hardware, and you fight for every optimization. Example: mplayer's RUNTIME_CPU_DETECTION. But this is, I think, a case for 1% of users only. You hardly need to do that. In most cases, the default options are fine, and the binary packages just work. For things you want to tailor and optimize to your needs then use the ports system.
