I'm a new porter and have noticed a lot of things not in the handbook, and learnt by looking at other ports or the ports mk files. I will keep notes as I learn to make new ports, and will try to send them as patches when I find some idle time. The book may be incomplete, but I think it's more than enough info as it is to get you well on your way to creating new ports. -- "You keep using that word.
