As ajtiM suggests, @gnome is the place to look. Several threads on this. It, along with the whole of Gnome, were planned to be updated when 9.1 was released, but the loss of pointyhat and the complexity of the update of Gnome with potential impact on literally hundreds of ports has forced a delay. It would be extremely unwise to do this without the level of testing pointyhat allows. Now that the FreeBSD cluster and support systems are finally coming back on-line, maybe it is getting closer, but I suspect that the testing and required adjustments will take a while after pointyhat is running. -- R.
