Is there any other place the user community could be made aware of this info other than the ports mailing lists (I think that committers, etc mostly subscribe to this) If not, would it be perhaps possible to make a note of these changes on www.freebsd.org/ports for example? FYI: Please CC me, as im not subscribed to the list. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Blaz Zupan [mailto:blaz@si.FreeBSD.org] Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2003 2:07 PM To: Mike Jakubik Cc: ports@freebsd.org Subject: RE: Nagios port > Im sure they do.

During the freeze all commits must be approved by the RE (Release Engineer), so they decide what goes in and what does not. If a port wasn't working at all, there is obviously a reason to fix it even during the ports freeze, the other reason would be security fixes, etc. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
