I don't know when the 2009Q3 release will happen - month end, I thought. That plus a week for building new packages would push us out too far. We've never defined any gating condition for what happens with pkgsrc - as in, is there a certain number or set of packages that must build for a release to be OK? (not necessarily a question to answer in this thread) The 2.3.2 packages I have built/am building now should work for 2.4; we can start right off the bat with those, build new 2.4 packages, and shift to pkgsrc-2009Q3 packages when they are available and built without holding the release up, by shifting the links on avalon.
