release can be found at http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.30/ .
This release brings initial PackageKit support, Upower (replaces power
management part of hal), cuse4bsd integration with HAL and cheese, and a
faster Evolution.
Sadly GNOME 2.30.x will be the last release with FreeBSD 6.X support. This
will also be the last of the 2.x releases. The next release will be the
highly-anticipated GNOME 3.0 which will bring with it a new UI experience.
Currently, there are a few bugs with GNOME 2.30 that may be of note for our
users. Be sure to consult the UPGRADING note or the 2.30 upgrade FAQ at
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq230.html for specific upgrading
instructions, and the up-to-date list of known issues.
This release features commits by avl, ahze, bland, marcus, mezz, and myself.
The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like to thank Anders F Bjorklund for doing the
initual packagekit porting.

versions of FreeBSD now contain /etc/rc.subr in the base. Version
1.636 of bsd.port.mk removed support for the RC_SUBR and RC_SUBR_SUFFIX
macros, so this is the last of the old infrastructure to go.

- While here, fix several minor issues with Makefile and pkg-descr (augment
COMMENT, utilize standard NO_BUILD and NO_WRKSUBDIR knobs, remove `x11'
as a secondary category, use correct installation commands and merge them
into one, give correct package name prefix (`linux-') for Linux binary-
only software, sort PLIST_FILES -- all these things that usually happen
when people are not reading PH well enough, do not look at other ports,
and not using common sense.) :-(

so it should be used SOLELY for testing and development, NOT IN PRODUCTION.

Thanks for all who loves OpenOffice.org. Sayonara, soshite arigatou (good-bye
and thank you)...
Feature safe: yes
Though long since expired and deprecated, 2 ports
net/gkrellm_snmp
net/ngr
still depend on it and do not work net-mgmt/net-snmp (v5)
BEWARE, dragons be here, rmPort will not catch these deps
and removing this port before they are converted will break
the INDEx
