You select a bunch of ports, and tell FreshPorts to email you whenever it sees a commit against one of those ports. These emails are sent out on a daily, weekly, fortnightly, or monthly basis. I've been keeping statistcs on these emails for three years. Tonight, I decided to graph them: http://www.freshports.org/graphs.php?id=17 BEFORE you click, have a guess at the month rate. Then click. -- Dan Langille : http://www.langille.org/ BSDCan - The Technical BSD Conference - http://www.bsdcan.org/
