Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

FInally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combinatio for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
Perl script to find fastest CVSup server: * uses socket connections not just 'pings' * takes notice of server responses * connects to servers in countries specified on the command line - or - connects to the 'local' servers defined in the script - or - connects to ALL the servers in ALL the countries * returns either fastest server or top 3 (useful for scripts) * returns exit codes (useful for scripts) * can re-write itself to update the CVSup server list, obtained from the online FreeBSD Handbook * can easily add other CVSup servers (NetBSD/OpenBSD...etc) WWW: http://fastest-cvsup.sourceforge.net/
