I started working on a -devel port in April 2019, while waiting in an airport lounge. It wasn't a high priority at the time as other higher priority projects have preempted what I started then. But patches are certainly welcome and would hasten the work. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert FreeBSD UNIX: Web: http://www.FreeBSD.org The need of the many outweighs the greed of the few.
