948: <p>
949: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for

953: source tree, our ports tree is available via
954: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
955: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
956: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
957: with a command like:
958: <p>
959: <ul><pre>
960: # <strong>cd /usr/ports</strong>

963: <p>
964: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
965: server.]
966: <p>
967: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
968: ports for the 5.8 release will be made available if problems arise.
969: <p>
970: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
971: would like to know more, the mailing list
