Also, I'm pleased to see there's been recognition in the BSD world that ports was not up to snuff and efforts are being expended to fix it. For many years all I ever saw in these conversations was denial that there was a problem, or that anyone should ever need/want the capabilities provided by apt/dpkg or yum/rpm. I consider good package management to be the primary selection criteria for choosing my operating systems, and I'm always surprised when people consider package management as anything other than the central feature of the OS. Of course, this means Windows and Mac OS X are right out, due to sucking much harder than most at package management.
