<p>The last quarter of 2017 ended with over 27,000 ports in the
repository. There are currently just under 2,800 open ports
PRs with 685 of them unassigned. There were 6,700 commits
made by 178 committers. The statistics did not change much
since last quarter, however the number of unassigned PRs
dropped slightly.</p>
<p>This quarter, we welcomed Yuri Victorovich (yuri@), Jason
Bacon (jwb@), and Wolfram Scheider (wosch@) as new or
returning port committers. No commit bits were taken in for
safekeeping.</p>
<p>Portmgr, together with postmaster@, changed the policy of the
FreeBSD-ports@ mailing list. It is now required to be
subscribed to the list before one can post to it. This will
help in reducing spam on this list and help users finding
better questions to their answers while browsing the list
archive.</p>
<p>This quarter ports &quot;flavors&quot; went live. Flavors
can be used to build multiple variations of a port, for
example <tt>py27-sarge</tt> and <tt>py36-sarge</tt>. All
Python ports and some other ports are now flavored. Other
uses of flavors could be including or excluding X11
(<tt>foo</tt> vs <tt>foo-x11</tt> or <tt>foo-nox11</tt>) or
selecting the printer paper size (A4 vs letter).</p>
<p><tt>USES=fmake</tt> has been removed as it was no longer
useful.</p>
<p>Some default versions got updated: Ruby to 2.4 and Samba to
4.6. Firefox got updated to version 57.0.3 and <tt>pkg</tt> to
1.10.3.</p>
<p>During the last quarter, antoine@ ran 33 exp-runs to validate changes
to the base system, fix Qt5 ports, test Python flavors and other port
updates, and make rubygem port builds reproducible.</p>

<task>Clang 6 is being imported into base. There is a PR that keeps track
of ports failing with this compiler, see <url
href="http://bugs.FreeBSD.org/224669">PR 224669</url>. If you use
any ports mentioned here, please consider fixing them.</task>
