From today 12:00 UTC, the ports tree is frozen in preparation for the 6.2 release cycle. See an earlier post for schedule and policy for what kind of commits are allowed. Everyone is encouraged to fix broken ports or ports that don’t build on the pointyhat cluster.
4 dead pigeons
Claypigeons, of course. Shooting claypigeons as teambuilding was quite a new idea and fun to try. The weather also was in a pleasant mood and it kept dry until we came home. Almost. But most surprisingly, I actually managed to hit a claypigeon. Pulverized it. And then one more. And one more. An finally a fourth. Now I’m not going to tell 4 out of how many, but don’t count on winning the war if you send me out in the field :)
New ports committer: Søren Straarup
One up for the danish world domination team! Please welcome Søren Straarup to the ranks of the ports committers. tmclaugh and garga thought it was time to punish him for his activity in irc and plenty of patches to python and windowmaker related ports. Wish him luck!
Ports freeze for 6.2 starts October 10
In preparation for the 6.2 release, the ports tree will be frozen from October 10. No commits will be allowed without explicit portmgr approval. We hope we can keep the freeze short and go into slush after one week. The tree will be completely unfrozen after the release is announced. For the full schedule, see the release schedule.
As always, only commit that fix existing breakage will be allowed during the freeze and we encourage everyone will help fix as many ports as possible for this release. For more information about what kinds of commits are allowed during which period, please see the portmgr policies webpage.
New ports committer: Stanislav Sedov
Just in time for the ports freeze, sem proposed to punish Stanislav Sedov for his many PRs, especially about ruby, ocaml and, if that isn’t enough, e17. Please welcome Stanislav to the ranks of the ports committers, and let’s hope he has enough patience during the freeze :)
New ports committer: Alexander Botero-Lowry
It’s been a while since the last new committer was added, but it’s that time of the year again, so please welcome Alexander Botero-Lowry to the ranks of the ports committers. Novel@ has been so kind to punish him for all his PRs and bsd.scons.mk amongst other things. Unfortunately for Alexander, the ports freeze for the 6.2 release will soon be upon us, so he’s bound for a slow start. Wish him luck!
