Please no. instead you should urge the project to pay more attention to the stable branch, if thats how you feel. Post *your* (yes you) patches for -stable and people can test them, if they work I am sure you can find a developer to commit them. Backporting is quite a simple process. Usually you can try the one from -current and just check "make lib-depends-check". Sometimes libraries move from ports to base or vica versa which can complicate thing slightly. I'm not sure what you would do with the version number of the port though? Is it the same as in -current? -- Best Regards Edd --------------------------------------------------- http://students.dec.bournemouth.ac.uk/ebarrett
