4.7-R is also at ftp.au.freebsd.org and ready to go.

i do have a query - has the various issues with packages building
been sorted out ?  i understand there was some issues with .gz and .bz
stuff.

is the future direction confirmed that it will be a package tree
for every release (at approx 4-6G? each time).

is packages-4-stable deprecated or undergoing renovation or..

personally i am just trying to understand how packages will work
in the future.  is packages-4-stable a sort of "new and updated
packages builds will be made available here in response to security
issues or updates" while packages-4.7-release is a "packages here
are frozen at the time of release and will never be updated in this
tree" ?

regards,

-jason
