OK, here is an example, this is clamav-devel freebsd port:

http://www.freshports.org/security/clamav-devel

And here is the place files are available to download:

http://www.clamav.net/snapshot/

How you can see, it's periodically updated using daily snapshots
clamav team make available. They keep last 20 files always available
and delete old ones.

I disagree with you when you say to don't porting other than the
Official release, making a windowmaker-devel port on collection
is a good way to have more people testing the changes and giving
a feedback, many problems could be found before official version
is released and the final release could be better.
