Given the time you created INDEX, here are the ports which I think 
should be included in INDEX, but were not found.  Why why are not in 
INDEX, I don't know.  The date is the time it was added to the ports 
tree.  I've checked with cvs and the following ports are in the tree.

pine 4.21.2.9 hebrew  (Wednesday, Aug 2 05:01)
ripit-dagrab 1.8 audio  (Monday, Aug 7 19:24)
ripit-cdda2wav 1.8 audio  (Monday, Aug 7 19:24)

The other entries on the URL I gave below should be ignored.  They 
were added after your cvsup.

The page in question was designed as a reconcilation tool for myself.  It 
allows me to compare the port count in INDEX with the port count within 
FreshPorts. I thought this information may be useful to someone, so I'm 
going to make the page publicly available.

thanks.
