956: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
957: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
958: with a command like:

961: # <strong>cd /usr/ports</strong>

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