+AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org
+The following changes were made to the ports infrastructure:
+
+ * DEPENDS variable was removed, please use other *_DEPENDS variables instead.
+
+ * A new pkg-plist keyword is available, @stopdaemon. It will call forcestop
+ on all rc.subr scripts installed by the port on deinstall, efectively
+ stopping services on deinstall/upgrade.
+
+ * rc.subr script suffix is now available in Makefile as RC_SUBR_SUFFIX.
+
+ * New variable USE_CDRTOOLS was introduced. It replaced direct dependencies
+ on sysutils/cdrtools port. It now automatically support switching to
+ cdrtools-cjk port when user specified WITH_CJK. All ports were converted.
+
+ * USE_DOS2UNIX, infrastructure for converting DOS to UNIX line feeds, was
+ enhanced by a new variable DOS2UNIX_REGEX. It allows to specify a find
+ -iregex parameter to limit touched files by file extensions.
+
+ * Support for partially translated manpages was added. For examples of
+ usage, please refer to Porter's Handbook.
+
+ * USE_TCL/USE_TK variables were changed to provide runtime dependency. New
+ variables USE_TCL_BUILD and USE_TK_BUILD were added. All unintuitive
+ quirks of these variables were fixed.
+
+ * USE_LDCONFIG was fixed to work properly for ports, that specify @cwd in the
+ pkg-plists.
+
+ * Old bsd.java.mk version 1.0 macros were removed.
+
+ * New category: ports-mgmt
+
+ * New virtual category: gnustep
+
+ * Unused picobsd category was removed.

We'd like to ask all ports maintainers, who are using Fortran77 (f77 in base),
to switch to Fortran90/95 (gfortran42, lang/gcc42). Please refer to
