Hey,

i386/amd64.miwibox.org and portscout.org will move to a new
location tomorrow evening. It won’t be reachable from about
20:00 CEST for about 4 to 5 hours.

Max and I worked hard to get KDE 3.5.10 ready before
the Ports freeze starts. Finally I commited the update
to the ports tree a few minutes ago.

You can see the Commit mail here.

A few weeks ago we committed KDE4 to the ports tree.
All and all, we can say, it works well for everyone.
We got few reports about problems that we could reproduce
and a lot that were user problems. We are really happy
overall. KDE 3.5.9 was committed a few days later.
Most of the work was done by lofi and Max. I hope we can
get KDE 3.5.10 out before the Ports freeze on September
8Th.

On Friday I have received an approval from portmgr@ to
allow Max Brazhnikov (makc) to join the Developers Community
as a ports committer. He’s done a great work submitting
new ports and a lot of KDE4 work, so it’s time to reward
him.

I’ll lead his first steps as ports committer and will be
responsible for his possible errors and receive pointy
hats for that:-)).

After the KDE 4.1.0 import the team found time to make
KDE 3.5.9 ready for the Ports tree.

KDE 3.5.9 was released six months ago and 3.5.10 is
coming soon. We are not sure we have time to get 3.5.10
for FreeBSD 7.1/6.4 release, but we would have minimum
3.5.9 for those people who prefer to stay with KDE3.

You can see the Commit mail here.

I’m happy to announce that KDE-4.1 is now available inthe FreeBSD ports tree. After a lot of hours and a lot of hard work we have everything done and merged. 

Personally I like to say some special thanks to:

Markus Brueffer who figured out how to get KDE4stable.

Sticky Bit for his nice CALL FOR HELP (Yes we reallyhave a help bit).

Andy Fawcett for updating the FreeBSD KDE site.

Mainlink.de and Beat Gätzi for traffic sponsoringfor the CFT.

Joe Marcus Clarke for his fast repocopies.

Erwin Lansing for his considerable amount of patiencedealing with all the problems in the last exp-run.

Pav Lucistnik for his review, comments and suggestions.

Max Brazhnikov for his good job and help.

And of course all the testers, helpers and others whohelped to make this possible  .

Have Fun!
