I tought I read some discussion about that but actualy wasn't really sure. =
But=20
looks like :)

Another suggestion (which I think is out of discussion, but): I'd strongly=
=20
recommend releasing 5.3 with kde 3.3.1!
I'm using (at least on my multihead machine) KDE for daily work and 3.3.0 h=
as=20
really lots of ugly bugs. Almost every (for me) really annoying bug was fix=
ed=20
in 3.3.1 accoreding to the changelog=20
(http://www.kde.org/announcements/changelogs/changelog3_3to3_3_1.php)

Since fruitsalad.org is doing pkg-plist runs excesively I think the port wi=
ll=20
be commited soon.

Is it possible to do another port freeze when -RC1 is out?
Additional reasons would be apache2, libtiff (which I can't find a=20
corresponding port), jdk14, kmplayer and lost of others.

Perhaps you were often asked about a ports release branch, but I think toda=
y=20
there are so many ports and so many security dependencies, isn't it worth=20
another thought?

Thanks a lot,

=2DHarry
