There is a lot of information that is IMHO missing on the various strategies to keep up with and use the Ports Collection (portupgrade, cvsup, and portsnap all deserve their own sections). There is a little bit at the end of the Porter's Handbook but IMHO the PH is too large anyways, and ought to be reoriented into just something targeted at maintainers. What do people think: should this information be in some kind of expanded section in the Handbook? Or a separate Article? mcl
