Please, don't confuse various individuals developing stuff relative to the release of FreeBSD they happen to have on their personal machines (this having always been predominantly the last official release) and submitting it for inclusion into -current with things actually being _checked in_ to the -stable branch! There might be 7000 bolt-on packages for 2.1-stable sitting in freefall.freebsd.org:~ftp/pub/Incoming but if they're not in the repository, they're all strictly unofficial and unsupported by us.
