You can have up-to-date ports tree and installed applications on the latest release of both CURRENT and STABLE branches (that includes the CD you have -- you would just pick up the latest ports tree instead of one shipped on CD). You can read: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=3Dports&sektion=3D7 http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports-using.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/dev-model/release-branch= es.html (among other pages) for more details.
