Hi!

> Since this is one of the biggest changes to the upgrade system since the OS was introduced, it might save those answering questions on the mailing lists and forums to put some useful aliases in the stock pkg.conf to deal with this. Similar with having this openly documented somewhere as opposed to people just grunting that "you know pkg can handle multiple repos (even though 99% of users out there have likely never had a need to switch repos when invoking pkg)".

This is where bugs.freebsd.org waits for patches and submissions.

And wiki.freebsd.org pages to update 8-}

Well, at least, before the Big AI in the Sky comes to do all this for us 8-}
