Hello,

Probably the wrong mailinglist.
But portsnap is not updating since a few days while there are commits on the ports tree. [1]

After some searching I found I am not the only one. Apparently there is maintenance being done on the servers.
http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-ports@freebsd.org/msg45395.html

I read a lot of blogs/RSS/etc. Nowhere any signs of maintenance on the servers. What is wrong with announcing these things on for example www.freebsd.org?

NB: I know it is voluntary work, thanks for doing it.

Regards,
Ronald.
