Hi Oliver,

1. I see. Then what is the reason to publish releases on the page

https://github.com/openxpki/openxpki/releases

if these releases are not workable?
Looks like a very dubious adds for users.

2. As for patching for BSD, it is not a program issue but rather an 
organizational issue.

FreeBSD ports (packages) are updated occasionally, when new release is 
published.
Of course we can choose some special git commit which will play the role 
of the release.
The problem is then who will name a certain git commit as a special one.

Say speaking of today, which commit would you recommend as a base for 
FreeBSD packaging?

All the best, Sergei
