There is already a tremendous amount of QA work being done, every day, to improve the ports collection. To get some idea, see the latter part of http://www.freebsd.org/portmgr/qa.html; http://pointyhat.freebsd.org and the pages it leads to; the summary page on http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portsoverall.py, and all of its other reports (e.g.:, http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portsconcordanceforbuildenv.py?buildenv=amd64&buildenv2=i386, which is highly over-inflated right now due to a run of "try to build things on amd64 that are marked not-for-amd64 anyways); and various email sent from Ion-Mihai Tetcu on a daily basis as he does incremental builds (the former builds are bulk builds). mcl
