[ portmgr@ hat on ]

Hi all,

We know that the bento build cluster (http://bento.freebsd.org/)
has been out of action for roughly 2 weeks.  We did not realize
what was happening until the other day when we had a closer look
at the problem.  Fortunately, we've got it fixed and it's now
running better than ever.

We've added an "experimental" build for 4.x only (4-exp).
This build is designed to help portmgr incorporate new features
into the Ports Collection in a more timely manner including those
already in our PR backlog:

http://freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi?responsible=3Dportmgr

We're happy to finally have a testbed where new features can be
tested without sacrificing the quality of the packages from the
existing -stable and -current builds.

Cheers!
