Hello!

I'm considering upgrading from Linux to FreeBSD in my home machine. I
have some doubts concerning the ports collection:

I would use the 4.8-RELEASE branch. The ports are stalled (just
security upgrades) or they continue to be updated with new versions of
the softwares?=20

What are the updates policies of the ports collections on the other
branches, where do I found more about it?=20

TIA.
