+      <p>This summer has seen the creation of a puppet@ team to help
+	maintain the ~30 Puppet-related ports in the &os; ports tree.
+	These ports were previously maintained by various committers,
+	and from time to time this introduced some delays when
+	updating a port due to the need to wait for a maintainer's
+	approval for a related change to a different port.</p>
+
+      <p>Puppet 5 is now in the ports tree (as
+	<tt>sysutils/puppet5</tt>).  The C++ version of Facter
+	(<tt>sysutils/facter</tt>) got a lot of love and is now a
+	drop-in replacement for the previous Ruby version of Facter
+	(<tt>sysutils/rubygem-facter</tt>); it is the default facts
+	source for the Puppet 5 port.</p>
+
+      <p>Work continues on bringing in Puppetserver 5 to the ports
+	tree, and on keeping all the ports up-to-date.</p>
