CALL FOR TEST: Makefile.webplugins for plugins system.

[Jeremy Messenger]

Hello folks,

I think I have finished with Makefile.webplugins[1] (USE_WEBPLUGINS) for  
web plugins that use in browser. It's ready for you to test it, and make  
bug report or/and feedback. There are four ports left that are not finish,  
these are *jdk* (Java) ports and are being work on. I have tested almost  
all of plugins in firefox2, firefox3 and opera. I was not able to test  
following ports:

	- www/openvrml: It requires more than 1.5GB RAM to build. All of
	  my machines only have 1GB and less.
	- www/sidplug: I have no idea where I can test with this plugins,
	  but all browsers shows that it loads correct thought.
	- www/ump: Umm, it does not build.

How to use MC ports-stable and upgrade?
-------------------------------------------------------
You can grab marcusmerge[2] and run 'marcusmerge -m ports-stable'. If you  
want to update your ports tree, you have to run cvsup, csup, portsnap or  
different method first then marcusmerge second at the everytime. If you  
want to unmerge your ports tree, you can run 'marcusmerge -U' and be sure  
to update your ports tree to bring ports back. Be sure to read in  
marcusmerge manpage[3] for more info. The password is 'anoncvs'.

To upgrade your installed ports, you can just simple 'portmaster -a' or  
'portupgrade -a'.

As for the MC ports (GNOME development) users, you are required to update  
ports-stable first then ports second in order. The MC ports tree are  
already use ports-stable stuff, so without it and your MC ports will be  
broke.
