Does it control, or get controlled? What changes? Before it's checked in, folks can only get the port from my site and it doesn't get put on future FreeBSD distribution CDs. After it's checked in, folks can get the port here: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/ports-*/graphics/fxtv/* and from the ftp mirrors, when it propagates. Also, the port and package for the new version get built and put on future FreeBSD CDs, instead of the old version. And ports collection CVSupers get the updates I believe. Also, and I'm not real sure about this, but I think the package is mirrored to: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles so folks can fetch and build fxtv from the port, even when my ISP's web server is down. I'm not sure if this happens automagically though. Randall To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
