Yes, let's say there are two kinds of maintainers, those who keep the bugs they find in the port until there is a new release to an absolute minimum so that people are not scared of the number of changes, and there are those, like me, that would rather have a dozen updates between releases, each addressing a bug when it arises. The BIND ports were in such a miserable way, with kludges everywhere, when I took over that it took me some time to get them right. -- Mathieu Arnold
