We not distribute CD3 & CD4 any more, so people trend to use packages from ftp. take a look into ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable/x11/. we have non corrected xorg 6.8.1 packages here. I think we must choose right now, do a FreeBSD-5-stable package build run while we are mostly freeze for RELENG_4_11 and update ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable/x11/ ASAP. This will permit have officilal xorg 6.8.1 packages on ftp for RELENG_4/RELENG_5 working 'out of the box' after RELENG_4_11. I'll glad to see also the external uri handler patch for firefox/thunderbird (which makes external uri works on this apps), but I think this is really missed for RELENG_4_11 -- josemi
