I'm not sure I agree. We have nothing to do with the port. It can come
or go, the version in ports can change, the maintainer could forsake the
material world and run off the a convent at the north pole and we'd know
nothing about it. So why shoould we be responsible for making that FAQ.
Shouldn't the ports maintainer make that information readily available,
rather than us?

(Not trying to be sarcastic -- nor do I rule the idea out. But it does
seem like our standing in FreeBSD ports is simply not best placed in our
FAQ, or if there is a placement, it should be quite general.)

Or the port maintainer should be more communicative about it to us so we
can know the above things. (Maybe s/he has been and I've missed it, but
I know I seldom hear a peep from most maintainers, Ben Bell when he diid
debian packaging was the big exception).
