--- Comment #2 from Martin Birgmeier <la5lbtyi at aon.at> ---
Thank you for these remarks.

I understand that maintaining separate -beta ports is too time-consuming. Maybe
it would still be possible to just not include the release candidates in the
release cycles for these ports as was done previously, or maybe add a flag
which allows to easily skip upgrading of the port as long as it is based on a
release candidate - although that might need a change in the port make
infrastructure (and probably portmaster, too).

In any case I want to add that I really appreciate how well these essential
ports are maintained, and how quickly you resolve any issues (I submitted one
myself not too long ago).
