There should be a reminder on the main web page. I've semi-seriously joked with some that there should be a floating Javascript countdown timer. Even a manual update that shows the number of days left would be useful, something to convey the sense of urgency. 7 days left: Ports CVS will be shut down on February 28, 2013. Please see http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports-using.html for alternate methods to update the Ports Collection.
