Matthew Seaman articulated:

 phpMyAdmin-4.0.0 is in the early stages of its release process, with
 4.0.0-alpha2 released earlier today, alongside the just-committed
 update for the released version to 3.5.6.
 
 Now, my usual approach with the databases/phpmyadmin port is to track
 the latest released version, except for occasional forays into beta or
 release-candidate version when there have been early releases forced
 by security problems.
 
 Currently my intent is to switch databases/phpMyAdmin to track 4.0.x
 shortly after that version is released.  It's a new major version with
 lots of new code, a different look and feel, and one of the principal
 changes is that it will require javascript to function.
 
 What do people think?  If anyone has any reasoned objections to this,
 please let me know.

I use phpMyAdmin occasionally on my system. I would have no problem
with creating a new port for the 4.x branch, although you might want to
keep the 3.x branch in the ports system for awhile.

Just my 2¢.

If upstream is abandoning 3.x (which they should, it's full of security  
holes so 4.x better be an improvement) then I would say just bump it to  
4.x and don't make a separate phpMyAdmin port.

The upcoming phpMyAdmin 4.0.0

2013-01-28 Thread Matthew Seaman

Dear all,

phpMyAdmin-4.0.0 is in the early stages of its release process, with
4.0.0-alpha2 released earlier today, alongside the just-committed update
for the released version to 3.5.6.

Now, my usual approach with the databases/phpmyadmin port is to track
the latest released version, except for occasional forays into beta or
release-candidate version when there have been early releases forced by
security problems.

Currently my intent is to switch databases/phpMyAdmin to track 4.0.x
shortly after that version is released.  It's a new major version with
lots of new code, a different look and feel, and one of the principal
changes is that it will require javascript to function.

What do people think?  If anyone has any reasoned objections to this,
please let me know.

Cheers,

Matthew
