Yesterday I submitted the PR and got an acknowledgement e-mail with this link: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=173710 Usually in such situation this link shows "No PRs Matched Query" in this URL for a few hours and then info shows up. But not in this case. Now, after 18+ hours, this link still shows "No PRs Matched Query". Few questions: * What changed? Why PR doesn't show in the web interface? * Why don't PRs show up online immediately? Is there some process that synchronizes something in batches? What is the point of this process? * Why FreeBSD submission process doesn't require authentication? * I think the captcha in use is very outdated and will be easily broken once some hackers will come across it. I think google recaptcha would be a very welcome change. Or maybe something a bit more creative like https://github.com/josscrowcroft/MotionCAPTCHA would also be good. Yuri
