+      <p>The number of ports is currently just 500 short of 30,000.  The current
+	number of PRs is close to 2,400, of which 620 are unassigned.  The last
+	quarter saw 6656 commits from 167 comitters.  Both the number of ports and
+	the number of unassigned PRs have increased in the last quarter.</p>
+
+      <p>In the last quarter, we welcomed 7 new committers: Eugene Grosbein
+	(eugen), Johannes Dieterich (jmd), Larry Rosenman (ler), Mahdi Mokhtari
+	(mmohki), Matthew Rezny (rezny), Tobias Kortkamp (tobik), and Vladimir
+	Krstulja (?).  dumbbell@ was already a src committer and got an extension
+	for the Ports Tree.  We also welcomed back krion@ and miwi at .  We took 6
+	bits in for safe-keeping: itetcu@, leeym@, mva@, olivierd@, pgollucci@,
+	and sanpei at .</p>
+
+      <p>There were no changes to the membership of portmgr.</p>
+
+      <p>antoine@ worked on <tt>USES=samba</tt> to prepare for the
+	removal of the long-outdated Samba 3.6 ports and replace them
+	with modern versions.  The new default versions are:
+	FreePascal 3.0.2, Ruby 2.3, and Samba 4.4.  A new variable
+	<tt>USE_LOCALE</tt> was createdto add the <tt>LANG</tt> and
+	<tt>LC_ALL</tt> environment variables to all builds.
+	Out-of-tree patches can now be added with the new
+	<tt>EXTRA_PATCH_TREE</tt> variable.  The error messages for
+	invalid <tt>SINGLE</tt> options were improved.</p>
+
+      <p>Some of the major port updates last quarter were: pkg 1.10.1, linux
+	c6_64, Firefox 52.0.2, Chromium 57.0.2987.110, GCC 4.9.4, Gnome 3.18.0,
+	Xorg 1.18.4, Qt 4.8.7 and 5.7.1, and PHP 7.1.</p>
+
+      <p>antoine@ ran 31 exp-runs to test version updates and under-the-hood
+	changes.</p>
