I'v braged about FreeBSD and the software being almost up do date. That was my mistake! I volunteered to port a simple application and submitted it the 14 of January. And its still opened and unassigned. On further investigation I see that its not only my application. What is wrong with the port management? Are the rules to strict to encourage new porters or are there temporary problems? What can I do to get my application accepted? (problem report: 119672) BR Simon
