ports which makes possible the direct translation of Cabal package
descriptions to FreeBSD ports. It promises both easier addition and
maintenance for Cabal-based ports.
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.

For some reason this port uses the <regexp.h> header file, but doesn't
link against libcompat. This means it actually calls the POSIX regex
functions, which means it will probably just crash. Just port it to the
POSIX API.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
- Drop `x11/dmenu' rdep, it is no longer required
- Drop `devel/9base' dependency as well, since it is rather incomplete.
Users who prefer Plan 9'ish way of configuring WMII are advised to go
with `devel/plan9port' port instead
- Respect DOCSDIR and NOPORTDOCS
- Set LATEST_LINK now it's actually quite usable (esp. with p9p)
Feature safe: yes
reasons to unconditionally reimplement strlcat(3), which is being around in
BSD for over a decade now, but WMII does it anyways. Apparently, somebody
needs to reread Unix Haters Handbook.
Despite the fact that return value of strlcat() does not seem to be used
anywhere, I decided to keep their implementation instead of switching to
kosher implementation from our libc, just in case of some weird bug-to-bug
compatibility issue.

Update the master site to the new openbox.org domain
From the release announcement:
There are a number of bug fixes in this release, and continued
improvements to menu behaviour. The coolest thing however, is changes
to the the focus cycling (Alt-Tab) dialog. It is now dynamic as
windows appear/disappear while focus cycling.
