The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
Commit processing was halted at UTC 18:33 on 2026-08-05 for pkgbasify of jails and updating the host from 15.0 to 15.1 - same with jails. - that upgrade was completed by 18:53 - the website has caught up with the 6 commits it missed in that time.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

graphics/py-pillow: Update to 7.0.0

* Repo-Copy the Pillow 6.2.2 release to graphics/py-pillow6 to retain
  backwards compatibility for Python 2 consumers as the Pillow 7.0.0 release
  dropped the support for Python 2.

* Apply conditional statements to use either Pillow 7.x or Pillow 6.x for
  consumers that can be built for Python 2 or newer.

* Exceptions are ports that can be built only for either Python 2 or
  Python 3.  For the first case, consumers are just assigned to the
  repo-copied graphics/py-pillow6.

* Also remove Pillow from BUILD_DEPENDS of math/py-PyWavelets as it is not
  listed in setup.py as a build dependency [1] and relax the version

Convert Python ports to FLAVORS.

  Ports using USE_PYTHON=distutils are now flavored.  They will
  automatically get flavors (py27, py34, py35, py36) depending on what
  versions they support.

  There is also a USE_PYTHON=flavors for ports that do not use distutils
  but need FLAVORS to be set.  A USE_PYTHON=noflavors can be set if
  using distutils but flavors are not wanted.

  A new USE_PYTHON=optsuffix that will add PYTHON_PKGNAMESUFFIX has been
  added to cope with Python ports that did not have the Python
  PKGNAMEPREFIX but are flavored.

  USES=python now also exports a PY_FLAVOR variable that contains the
