I'm doing a survey about the availablilty of some packages in different

One suggestion: use csup to fetch ports-all and specify different
releases as your tag in your supfile. Then you can do whatever you
like with the different versions of the ports tree that you have
fetched.
It is my understanding that you can't fetch different versions of the ports
tree via csup based on release tags, but I could be mistaken.
