I administrate several unix machines. I like FreeBSD quite a bit, and wish that Solaris or Linux had a ports collection. They don't, and frequently when I want to compile a new version of something I have a hard time finding out where to FTP the source from. Is there any chance that in the web version of the FreeBSD ports collection at http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html, for each port, you could list where the installer will FTP the source from? A directory of FTPable unix code would be handy.
