Hello Mathieu,

My doubt is related to wxWidgets update that involves security, bug fixes
and some changes:
https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/?id=e469df520bef0163bba99153f24b1de06d9364f8

There's the bump comsumers on main:
https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/?id=03eac77c103b637b316d6a73df7cae01986402cf

Now I'm in doubt how should I commit it to quarterly.

Thanks,
