 Task that I'm trying to solve is getting ports which _will come_ with
x.y-RELEASE _before_ this release (so

	ftp://ftp#.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/x.y-RELEASE

doesn't exist yet, but ports tree has already been frozen, tagged, and
unfrozen again) in order to fetch distfiles for required ports while they're
available. I want to keep distfiles for some categories of ports in synch with
ports collection in order to have nice funny set of CDs for Internet-less
installations: CD#1 (or even miniinst.iso) + distfiles for main ports
categories.

P.S. I'm sorry for creating noise in this forum, I won't continue this thread.

Sincerely, Dmitry
