The lines highlighted in yellow are the ones where the port is known to be out-of-date. There might also be some others where portscout didn't detect the availability of a newer version. Here's another list, this time listing ports by maintainer: http://www.portscout.org/index-total.html When I checked this just now, there were 4872 unmaintained ports, of which 314 (6.44%) were known to be out-of-date. According to http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html there are currently 21869 ports in the ports collection. Doing a little math, that means that 22.3% of all ports are unmaintained, but only 1.4% are both unmaintained and out-of-date. Just thought I'd add a little perspective to Mark's reply. :)
