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.

Description:
Ion (based on PWM) is a new kind of window manager that brings a text-editorish, keyboard friendly user interface to window management. Modern GUIs are unusable. Overlapping windows are hard to manage, especially from the keyboard, and the user often ends up in a jungle. Not to mention the application programs, which are even worse. Mouse-based search-and-click interfaces are slow - keyboard is fast having learnt the commands. Ion (the last three letters of vision =-) was written as an example and an experiment of something presumably better (just the window manager, though). Ion simply divides the screen into frames that take the whole screen. Big displays have so much space that this is convenient and smaller displays couldn't show more than one window at a time anyway. The frames can be split and growing the size of one will shrink others. Alike in PWM, clients can be moved between frames and multiple clients can be attached to one frame. With Ion you will hardly ever have to touch the mouse again for navigation between windows and the windows are always in order. WWW: http://modeemi.cs.tut.fi/~tuomov/ion/

The absolute best that can be said here is that the license is somewhat
incompatible with how FreeBSD, and its ports, work.

With portmgr hat on, acknowledge that the author of this software does not
allow versions older than 28 days to be distributed.

Mark this for quick expiration, as I do not believe it will be possible
for FreeBSD to guarantee that timeliness given our procedures for ports
freezes.

Update to ion-3rc-20070902.

ChangeLog: http://modeemi.fi/~tuomov/ion/download/ion-3-changelog.html

From the release notes: ``This release features a few minor fixes. If no major
problems are discovered, this is likely to be the last "rc" release before the
first and hopefully final "stable" release.''

Update the (unofficial, unsupported) Xinerama module to the latest version.

While here, add my local distfiles to the master sites for ion-3 to keep the
port fetchable when a new upstream version happens and the distfile goes away.
