Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
This utility notably decreases the startup time of your X sessions, provided that you start a number of X clients automatically during the X session startup. Most people, for instance, start X clients like xterm, xclock, xconsole and xosview from their .xinitrc, .openwin-init, .xtoolplaces or .xsession file. These X clients are started simultaneously (in the background) which puts a high load on the X server and the OS: * The X server is not multi-threaded, so all X clients are competing to get access to the X server and to use its resources, which causes a lot of overhead (= delay). * The performance of other (non X related) tasks served by the system degrades badly due to the high load. If the system has not enough RAM to hold all the X clients, it is swapping heavily, resulting again in a lot of delay. On the Sun platform there is a utility called 'toolwait' which solves these problems: it starts one X client in the background, waits until it has mapped a window and then exits. Xtoolwait is a free implementation of exactly the same idea.
