Steve, ports-freeze dates are set and published ahead of time just as dates for releases are. It's obviously not a good thing to have to try and be very conservative with commits to ports (in order to have a maximum number of them working for the next 4.x release) while at the same time there is loud demand for fixing a big number of them for -CURRENT.


Don't bother telling me I'm whining, pointing at the handbook again and saying "don't expect anything to work on -CURRENT at any given time", you're shooting the messenger.
