Hi Byung-Hee,

AFAIK, The ports are not frozen yet.  I think we can make it by updating
the port before this weekend.

There is a bit of testing to make sure that we can repo-copy the
editors/emacs port to editors/emacs22 and check that the new
editors/emacs port for 23.1 works fine.

I'm working on it, and I will post patches soon-ish :)
