Apparently teTeX development/support ended on May 2006 (according
to http://www.tug.org/tetex/) and people (from the accounts on
comp.text.tex newsgroup) seem to be moving, or already
have moved, to Tex Live.

How long would teTeX ports remain available?

Will there be any Tex Live port in our future? I did not find
anything suitable via search for "tex live" or "texlive" on
http://www.freebsd.org/ports/.  To do my part, I volunteer to be a
tester of Tex Live port(s).
