If anyone cares.... for the cvsup part, I made an scripts that automates
the process of upgrading the sources:
It is very stupid and simple, but it saves me some time, and it keeps all
the mods made to the source tree logged somewhere with a timestamp in the
name.
Just do, say, ./update ports to update the tree as per the ports-supfile
and log the results in ./logs/ports-`date +%Y%m%d`
Gimme your comments please!
