Hi.
So, to all of you slackers out there who are wondering how you could contribute
to the project, have a look at:
http://portroach.openbsd.org/
This will let you know the ports that could use an update in our tree. The
point is not to *blindly* update everything of course, but at least it will
give you a chance to look at candidates (full disclosure: there are many!).
The "the openbsd ports mailing-list" MAINTAINER references all orphan ports, so
it's likely there's some nice work to do in there -- some of which may be very
trivial.
Oh also, a nice side effect is that you can start pointing fingers at
maintainers that are slacking too much :-)
Do note that portroach[1] is still a fast moving target: you can harass jasper@
about the bugs you find...
If you are maintaining a port and would like portroach to automatically send
you a mail when one of your port becomes out-of-date, drop me a mail and I'll
register you.
This will allow you to update it before anyone has a chance to mock you for
being out-of-date!

portroach is a friendly fork of FreeBSD's portscout
