Also the nodes are not always updated simultaneously for each architecture, it usually falls more along administrative groupings like which ones are colocated and sharing the same NFS root. The bottom line is that if you want to evaluate the impact on the ports tree of a certain change to src, contact portmgr to schedule a full build. We're happy to work with src developers to do this (ideally before the change is committed, if there is a belief that it might have a large disruptive impact). Kris
