Still using teTeX, but as we all know, development has been canceld by 
Thomas Esser. I'm looking for a working 'powerdot' which is part of 
TeXLive now, but there is no TeXLive-port available for FreeBSD. 
Searching for that matter brings up some informations released a year 
ago and I'm wondering about the fact that there is no support for FreeBSD.
Is there a workaround or 'master plan' how to bring TeXLive to a FreeBSD 
bx in a clean way? Can TeXLive coexists with teTeX.

Thank you very much for your patience ...

Regards,
Oliver
