Hi, This is just a quick note to say that we'll be starting the freeze for new functionality in the pkgsrc repo at 23:59 UTC on December 17th 2012, and expect it to last for around 2 weeks. The goal of the freeze is to keep the underlying infrastructure and base packages constant, allowing fixes to aid building on different platforms to take place. Looking forward to a positive, stable and happy pkgsrc-2012Q4. Best, Alistair
