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) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Mix-in, Singleton-method) + Operator Overloading + Exception Handling + Iterators and Closures + Garbage Collection + Dynamic Loading of Object files(on some architecture) + Highly Portable(works on many UNIX machines, and on DOS, Windows, Mac, BeOS etc.) Author: Matsumoto "matz" Yukihiro <matz@zetabits.com> WWW: http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/

Change the default version of ruby to 1.8 for i386 as well, finally.

Always put a version suffix to the ruby name (no matter if ruby is the
default version) to avoid mess in future.

[Notes for i386 users]

If you are a ruby developer and still want to stick with ruby 1.6 as
default, please add RUBY_DEFAULT_VER=1.6 to /etc/make.conf.

If you are a ruby developer and want to keep ruby 1.6 as default,
please add RUBY_DEFAULT_VER=1.6 to /etc/make.conf.  Otherwise, please
run the following series of commands to migrate to ruby 1.8:

  1) Reinstall portupgrade manually (and ruby 1.8 will be installed)
