It's time to bite the bullet. My 1.3 GHz Pentium-M Notebook just can't keep up with the port building. I need OpenOffice and stuff and the party is really over at that point. I need something with binary packages. Do I understand that correctly if I run 8.0 release I get to have prebuilt binaries as recognized by portupgrade? What happens to the minor security updates? Can I follow TRELENG_8_0 and port portsupgrade recognize this as something that uses 8-release binary packages? Any other recommendations?
