Hello, I moved all my servers (about 40) to the pkgng (new generation) package/port system, and I can say that it is amazing... it is not yet finish, and have some minor "issues", but works very well, and is lightning fast..
It is almost the same as "pacman" (from Archlinux).. you build a "repository" and install packages from that repository. when you update the repository, the other servers can do an "upgrade".. you do not have to have the ports tree in each server, and you build the ports only on the master server.... in the master server, there is a full gnome2 (with 842 dependencies) that install right on the shelf with only one command: pkg install gnome2 now I have a full functional server runing gnome, libreoffice, inkscape hplip, cups printing, gdm... in about 30 minutes from internet....
