Do you know if anyone has written down their experience with porting to
ninja?
Unfortunately no :(.
The FreeBSD ports structure just encapsulates several build systems within BSD
make so all we see is that some ports add a line like this:
USES= ninja
And it basically builds faster.
BTW, newer versions of serf are using scons now, which will probably make it a
mess to build within AOO.

ps. I took the time to update some few tarballs in the apache-extras
repository before the Jan. 15 upload expiration. OpenSSL and Python plus
some fonts basically.
