Hi all,

I'm looking for a committer with spare time to look into some PRs that
could be useful, but are getting old.

PR 20910: nessus package update, it is a Bad Thing (tm) for a security
tool to be so outdated. This PR comes from the maintainer. It also
lists other PRs that can be closed for various reasons. This PR covers
nessus, nessus-libnasl, nessus-libraries and nessus-plugins and
updates them to the latest available version (1.0.4). Current port
won't event get past make fetch :-)

PR 20887: Fixes for cyrus-sasl, and LDAP support. Patch from the
maintainer, see last followup. Also closes PR 20623.

PR 20761: From maintainer (that's me :)), more MASTER_SITES for the
ruby-man port: when the current master site went down the port could
not be build. This patch is good for the ruby-man in the japanese
category too.

PR 20722: jmk-x11-fonts, new port, very simple, just some more fonts
for X. If there are any problems with this port please drop me a note
so I can fix it as soon as possibile.

PR 20560: urwfonts, new port, new X fonts.

PR 20559: nucleus, new port, more X fonts.

PR 20617: uae, new port, the unix amiga emulator. A followup should
appear very soon to update it to version 0.8.15.

PR 20998: Xfstt improvements: startup script and TrueType font
directory creation. I would also like to become the maintainer for
this, current maintainer agrees.

I also have a Blender port ready, but not submitted. It is so simple
that I wonder if somebody else did it before me, but there were
particolar reasons not to include in the ports collection. I had a
look at it and I thought that it would require a NO_CDROM variable in
the Makefile to prevent commercial distribution (according to the
package license).

I have a question too. Take Xfstt for example: should a port provide
and install an executable script in rc.d, or install a .sh.sample file
and let the sysadmin copy/link it to a .sh file?

Thanks!

bye,
  Jimmy
