portupgrade

All,

I've created http://svn.freebsd.org/base/user/pgollucci/portupgrade/
w/ trunk, branches, tags.  I've imported 2.4.6 (ports-mgmt/portupgrade)
and 20091221 (ports-mgmt/portupgrade-devel) in.  I've tagged them.

I've also dropped 1.8.6 ruby support from the comments.

I assigned all 29 ports PRs relating to the 2 of them to myself.

The 1st thing I want to do is suggest that we update
ports-mgmt/portupgrade to ports-mgmt/portupgrade-devel and rmport the
latter.

Once that happens I'll start looking through the PRs and applying the
ones with patches.  I should then be able to present a 2.5.0 test
candidate.  Once tested we'll update the port.

That should leave the prs without patches.  And we'll deal with that then.

Having said all this, I've absolutely 0 desire to maintain portupgrade.
Once we get this far, unless I'm out-right veto'd I'm going to reset
MAINTAINER from ruby@ to ports at .  If someone does veto me, I'll ask
portmgr@ to support b/c I know its not being cared for with ruby@ which
is all of 4 people.

What we should really do is figure out how to consolidate to portmaster
since that is *very* well maintained and drop this time suck.

P.S.
  No offense to the authors, I used portupgrade for quite sometime
successfully before switching to my Tinderbox setup.
