[HEADSUP]: ports feature freeze now in effect
In preparation for 7.3-RELEASE, the ports tree is now in feature freeze. Normal upgrade, new ports, and changes that only affect other branches are allowed without prior approval but with the extra Feature safe: yes tag in the commit message. Any commit that is sweeping, i.e. touches a large number of ports, infrastructural changes, commts to ports with unusually high number of dependent ports, and any other commit that requires the rebuilding of many packages is not allowed without prior explicit approval from portmgr after that date. When in doubt, please do not hesitate to contact portmgr. -erwin -- Erwin Lansing http://droso.org Prediction is very difficult especially about the futureer...@freebsd.org pgpilVCtRv3g7.pgp Description: PGP signature

Here's what Martin Wilke said in the call for testing: Before you ask we don't want to put KDE 4.4.0 in the ports tree before FreeBSD 7.3 was released. But there's no reason to think it will be quite some time before we see it in the portstree. Given the past history of the KDE porting team, I would expect to see it shortly after the 7.3 release. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Sorry, this was supposed to go to ports@ instead. Looks like I need to debug my muttrc. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
