I'm not going to support this effort as part of the CVS ports tree (for the usual reasons when this comes up every few months), but there's nothing stopping you+your collaborators from maintaining your own stable ports tree in your own repository and providing your own support for it. I think someone (kuriyama?) was in fact already doing this, so getting the project started would not involve much work. Kris
