Hello,

The patch for vietnamese/xvnkb port was commited today by rafan 
(http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=106020). Please check again if 
everything is okay with the port now.
I'd like to have a look at 1 or two ports in the list, hope that I can do 
something with them.
Thank you to Kris and the ports team for the heavy job.
