it is "limited to Australian connections."

MASTER_SITE_RINGSERVER instead of listing each and every RingServer.
It is painful and just a waste of time to look each RingServer for a
file when it is gone or missing. (They are synchronized with each
other so tightly)
These sites have splitted-by-feature gcc, gdb and other tools.
Note they are all bzip2'd.
If you found bzip2'd version of your distfile here,
please consider to migrate from ${MASTER_STIE_GNU}. Thanks!

It is about 400Gb in size and has 100Mbps connection to the outside world.
It mirrors most of the common package collections.
FreeBSD users from Russia (as well as all others) are advised to use it.
Add several sites to, and remove several from, MASTER_SITE_SUNSITE.
The ones I removed had been flagged by Fenner's port survey, but
I also checked them myself. I removed ftp.jaring.my because it is
only a partial mirror. I added metalab's HTTP service at the bottom
of the list.

The RingServer Project is one of the largest FTP/HTTP mirror site

Hereby the following MASTER_SITE entries are now powered by
RingServers.
MASTER_SITE_XCONTRIB
MASTER_SITE_XFREE
MASTER_SITE_GNU
MASTER_SITE_PERL_CPAN
MASTER_SITE_TEX_CTAN
MASTER_SITE_SUNSITE
MASTER_SITE_KDE
I believe this would greatly reduce the traffic from Japan to US and
European servers.
To Japanese users:
Please configure your MASTER_SORT and/or MASTER_SORT_REGEX properly to
use those mirrors instead of foreign ones! :>

XFree86 nows offers http download access! This is a big story for those
who cannot download via ftp access because of proxy/firewall concerns.

INSTALL_SHLIBS is set, ldconfig is automatically called from
post-install and necessary @exec and @unexec lines are added to
PLIST.

(1a) Add
PREFIX=%D LOCALBASE=${LOCALBASE} X11BASE=${X11BASE}
to PLIST_SUB. These are needed by INSTALL_SHLIBS, but also could
be useful in general.
(2) Move master/mirror site definitions to bsd.sites.mk and include it
from bsd.port.mk. Open bsd.sites.mk to other committers.

(2a) Add MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE.
Submitted by: sobomax (who wrote SORCEFORGE, but I assume that's a typo :)
(2b) Move MASTER_SITE_LOCAL from ".../ports/distfiles/LOCAL_PORTS/" to
".../ports/local-distfiles/%SUBDIR%/" which will be mirrored from
peoples' ~user/public_distfiles on freefall. Add two mirrors
(Japan and Germany).

(3) Simplify definition of PKGBASE since it can now be defined as
simply ${PKGNAMEPREFIX}${PORTNAME}${PKGNAMESUFFIX}, instead of
sed'ing out the version number from ${PKGNAME}.
Submitted by: hoek
(4) Remove unnecessary targets prefix and mtree-file, which can be
implemented as "make -V PREFIX" and "make -V MTREE_FILE",
respectively. Don't define MTREE_FILE when NO_MTREE is set so
"make -V MTREE_FILE" won't print out anything.
(5) Various minor typo and grammar fixes.
(6) Define NONEXISTENT?=/nonexistent. This will help quiet portlint
warnings, among other things.
