I'm looking forward to this.  I've been monitoring  freshports.org since you posted, but I haven't seen any of these commits show up yet.

One thing I don't understand is why you plan to bump xorg-server-snap so little.  I thought this port (like graphics/dri-devel) was supposed to be more bleeding-edge current than it's official counterpart.  E.g. when xorg-server goes to 6.9.0, shouldn't xorg-server-snap go up to (at least) 6.9.1 ?

Thanks,
