+    <li>downloading of distfiles is simpler, can resume interrupted download,
+    discover file moves, and expire old files. Distfiles mirror sites now use

+    <li>more checks are done during package builds, for increased user friendliness
+    <li>the long term process of documenting the infrastructure is now 100% done.
+    <li>The distributed ports builder (dpb) can now clean up old dependencies,
+    thus helping package builds be more reproducible.
+    This found tens of hidden build dependencies in the ports tree already.
+    <li>the semantics of pkg_add -a have been nailed down and a few minor bugs
+    have been fixed.
+    <li>arch-dependent issues are better classified, leading to better builds on
+    old architectures in some complicated cases. In particular, dpb explicitly
+    purges from memory info about packages it cannot build and stuff that 
+    depends on it, leading to better life on sparc and vax which have very
+    small data-size limits.
+    <li>dpb recognizes full builds and trims some duplicate package builds
