Althought the ports tree is frozen, we are still very interesting in
getting fixes to current versions in the ports tree. Even within the
restrictions of a freeze, there are plenty of problems to fix out there
to be found at the usual places (portsmon/pointyhat). A lot of those
have been ignored for some time as people are too busy with version
upgrades and thus they could use some extra attention.

I'll be out traveling to several conferences the upcoming weeks, but I'd
really like to see some focus towards fixing errors instead of version
upgrades or PR busting.

Good luck!
