I am just back from OSCON.
While there, I attempted to incorporate some CSS patches into FreshPorts…. I failed.
It is time to Open Source FreshPorts. It uses PHP (website), Perl (message processing), and Python (cache). It’ll take me a while to get the infrastructure into place. I have servers suitable for this purpose. […]

Søren Straarup brought this up today. FreshSource does not link to the right place in CVSWEB for commits to CVSROOT. For example, look at this commit. If you click on the diff link, it goes to the wrong place. It goes to
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/CVSROOT/modules.diff?r1=1.18319&r2=1.18318
instead of
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/CVSROOT-ports/modules.diff?r1=1.18319&r2=1.18318
After discussions with Simon Nielsen and is Søren […]

Greetings from southern Florida. If you haven’t heard, I moved to Jupiter, Florida. Yes, PGCon and BSDCan will be in Ottawa in 2008. My relocation does not affect those events.
It was this commit to print/gutenprint that caused the problem. You will notice that one file is touched twice by that commit. […]

FreshSource has long has a tool for walking the source tree. By source tree, do not think src. Think ports, www, src, docs, everything that you can see through cvsweb.
The screen shot you see is what FreshSource looks like on my laptop.
I’m happy with this progress, which represents about two hours of work. […]
