GNOME 2.20 release notes can be found at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/ . Beyond that, this update
includes the new GIMP 2.4 (courtesy of ahze).
The GNOME 2.20 update also includes a huge change in the FreeBSD GNOME
hierarchy. We are now using the more standard DATADIR of ${PREFIX}/share
rather than ${PREFIX}/share/gnome. The result is that fewer patches and
hacks are needed to port GNOME components to FreeBSD. This will mean some
user changes may be required, so be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for
more details.
This release and the things we accomplished in it would not have been
possible without mezz's crazy idea to collapse DATADIR, and his persistence
to make it happen successfully. Ahze and pav also deserve thanks for
their work on porting modules and testing the whole ball of wax on
pointyhat (respectively).
The FreeBSD GNOME team would also like to thank our various testers and
contributors:
Yasuda Keisuke
Frank Jahnke
Pawel Worach
Brian Gruber
Franz Klammer
Yuri Pankov
Nick Barkas
Cristian KLEIN
Tony Maher

Update of irc/ircd-ratbox port from ircd-ratbox-2.2.5 to ircd-ratbox-2.2.6
[patch] port upgrade for irc/ratbox-services
Update of irc/ratbox-services port from ratbox-services-1.0.3 to ratbox-services-1.1.2
Removal of irc/ircd-ratbox-devel
The ircd-ratbox-devel port is depreciated and installs an
out-dated version of ircd-ratbox. There is no current
development release of ircd-ratbox; please could this port
be deleted as the ratbox team are some time away from
releasing a new development version.
[Note that irc/ircd-ratbox-devel was synced with irc/ircd-ratbox]

However, you can disable OPTIONS by defining WITHOUT_APACHE_OPTIONS.

I explained to jmelo@ and he approved all these changes.
