[FreeBSD-Ports-Announce] [ANNOUNCE] ports 2014Q2 branched

[Baptiste Daroussin]

Hi all,

I am pleased to announce that we have created the 2014Q2 branch of the ports
tree.

Because the first 2014Q1 branch was experimental you might not have heard of it
yet.

January 2014 saw the release of the first quaterly branch, intended at
providing a stable and high-quality ports tree. Those stable branches are a
snapshot of the head ports tree taken every 3 months and currently supported
for three months, during which they receive security fixes as well as build and
runtime fixes.

Packages are built on regular basis on that branch (weekly) and published as
usual via pkg.FreeBSD.org (/quarterly instead of the usual /latest).

They are signed the same way the /latest branch is.

While packages for 2014Q1 were only built for 10 (i386 and amd64) 2014Q2 will be
built for both FreeBSD 9 and 10 (i386 and amd64).

The first build of 2014Q2 will started this morning (wednesday at 1 am UTC) and should
hit your closest mirrors very soon.

On behalf of the port management team
