release can be found at http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.30/ .
This release brings initial PackageKit support, Upower (replaces power
management part of hal), cuse4bsd integration with HAL and cheese, and a
faster Evolution.
Sadly GNOME 2.30.x will be the last release with FreeBSD 6.X support. This
will also be the last of the 2.x releases. The next release will be the
highly-anticipated GNOME 3.0 which will bring with it a new UI experience.
Currently, there are a few bugs with GNOME 2.30 that may be of note for our
users. Be sure to consult the UPGRADING note or the 2.30 upgrade FAQ at
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq230.html for specific upgrading
instructions, and the up-to-date list of known issues.
This release features commits by avl, ahze, bland, marcus, mezz, and myself.
The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like to thank Anders F Bjorklund for doing the
initual packagekit porting.

new version it should come first on the -o command line, and should be
the argument for the -r option.

- Remove emulators/virtualbox port. Renamed to emulators/virtualbox-ose
and seperate port for the kernel modules created:
emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod.
emulators/virtualbox-ose:
- Update to 3.1.2
- Update guest additions to 3.1.2
- Port has been renamed to virtualbox-ose to reflect that we are using
the OSE version. [1]
- Added proper PulseAudio support for FreeBSD [2]
- procfs is not required anymore because vbox uses sysctl(3) now [3]
- Update pkg-message to reflect recent changes
- Add nox's FreeBSD host networking patches that are now also in the
upstream vbox svn (modulo vbox variable naming style adjustments:)

1. Allow direct tap networking again (for users that need the best
network performance and/or need more complex network setups, like when
they want to use routing instead of bridging to e.g. protect from guests
messing with the lan's arp tables; a tap + routing + proxy arp example
is in the above freebsd-emulation posting.)
2. Enable vbox' shared mac feature when using bridged mode on a wifi
interface, together with the virtualbox-ose-kmod change this
should fix bridged mode for wifi users. [4]
emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod:
- Update to 3.1.2
- Add rc.d script to load kernel modules
- Fix build with a non-standard location for the system source [5]
- Merge aeichner's vboxnetflt fix committed to upstream vbox svn
(thanks!) that makes the shared mac feature enabled above actually work
on FreeBSD hosts. [6]
Please see http://wiki.freebsd.org/VirtualBox for update instructions.
Many thanks to the VirtualBox developers, all tester, patch submitter and
the whole vbox@ team.

Update security/openvpn20 to 2.0.9, revising pkg-message.
Move security/openvpn-devel to security/openvpn and
update security/openvpn to 2.1.1.
Remove security/openvpn-devel, adding a MOVED entry.
Update security/Makefile to remove openvpn-devel and add openvpn20 to
SUBDIRS.
Add a UPDATING entry for this shuffle. Currently without upgrade
instructions since neither portupgrade nor portmaster are up to the
task (because of the CONFLICTS).
