For those that want to see the state of all this, you can check out the following URL: http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portsconcordancefordeprecated.py In particular, the "interesting" entries for you may be the unmaintained ports (e.g. maintainer = "ports@FreeBSD.org".) In some of the other cases, the maintainer had already asked for the port to be deprecated (e.g. obsolete versions of databases/postgresql, dns/bind, emulators/linux_base, etc.) If you find that any of the ports on this list are ports that you use at your site, please consider taking them over as maintainer. This would help FreeBSD out. fwiw, an email version of this will go out on the 21st via a cronjob. Thanks. mcl
