Poudriere-devel probably has more users than the main port right now, judging from feedback I have received. pkg-devel also has a lot of users. I created portupgrade-devel so I could put out fixes and request users test them with it. It's a very simple way to get fixes into users hands for testing and feedback. --=20 Regards, Bryan Drewery --PEOBbbLAp3NWrJp12i3s09Mev64gcfHNT Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJT6nFVAAoJEDXXcbtuRpfPe3kIANpn+iq21fIfrpUpqNf/t8/S oat6Tb7H59DQCHuYX3nUCbyKA916rLib0mpfij69XjTwqTfNFrH21jzuziphRncN GOicTDyJnQ0BlodQtV2cJwJMKGzpXHNsov8/VFfOtCxIsK80Mb9tNkaHj+FPqmmB GrnP1dMq6XCnlQAZqizJEwMzW8Ws/wNPhaWA21tGXLbvqZlOp4sY4UzoZxqm2KWF szwbtexQGhselIBwKfebTUTV9HzC99Xx91EbdcQASBtAKxAnzJAgwDhMMPAilQEs BYdXRxwd1KLGVxJrJ+1A78b6ocEXpJFSr0y3e9H3KhUHJ5s7XxjGwQLLFNoivN8= =xmcB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --PEOBbbLAp3NWrJp12i3s09Mev64gcfHNT--
