It's ready for you to test it, and make bug report or/and feedback. There are four ports left that are not finish, these are *jdk* (Java) ports and are being work on. I have tested almost all of plugins in firefox2, firefox3 and opera. I was not able to test following ports: - www/openvrml: It requires more than 1.5GB RAM to build. All of my machines only have 1GB and less. - www/sidplug: I have no idea where I can test with this plugins, but all browsers shows that it loads correct thought. - www/ump: Umm, it does not build.

If you want to update your ports tree, you have to run cvsup, csup, portsnap or different method first then marcusmerge second at the everytime. If you want to unmerge your ports tree, you can run 'marcusmerge -U' and be sure to update your ports tree to bring ports back. Be sure to read in marcusmerge manpage[3] for more info. The password is 'anoncvs'. To upgrade your installed ports, you can just simple 'portmaster -a' or 'portupgrade -a'. As for the MC ports (GNOME development) users, you are required to update ports-stable first then ports second in order. The MC ports tree are already use ports-stable stuff, so without it and your MC ports will be broke.
