I could use some help getting started. I have made individual contributions to various ports over the years but nothing as involved as updating a language and all its dependencies. Is there some sort of checklist of steps to take or other form of coordination for something of this magnitude? I don’t want to step on anyone’s work or mess things up. What sort of environment should I be doing the work in? Most of my machines are running FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p4. I do have one running CURRENT but I haven’t had a chance to update it since early January. Kim
