Have a look at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/x11-wm/ion-3/Makefile. There have been 8 updates of this piece of software in that time. You state "the version distributed online may not significantly differ from the original author's latest stable release (resp. latest release on the branch) within a reasonable delay (normally 28 days)." You don't say "Not more than 28 days", you suggest 28 days as a reasonable delay for you. Due to the ports freeze there have been no normal software updates for about month in the FreeBSD ports tree. That is a normal delay in the lifecycle of the FreeBSD software. Not everybody is agreeing on it, but it is considered a normal delay. To quote a friend: cvs rm -rf <blah>; cvs commit -m "Your license sucks. Your code sucks. You suck. Happy Christmas." I hope that is not what you were after...
