> As announced in September the ports tree will no longer be exported to
> CVS after February 28th 2013. All users who still use CVS, CVSup or csup
> to update the ports tree are encouraged to switch to portsnap(8) or for
> users which need more control over their ports collection to use
> Subversion directly [1].
> 
> A migration guide from CVSup/csup to portsnap is also available in the
> FreeBSD handbook [2].
> 
> More information regarding the end of ports CVS can be found in the
> initial announcement [3].
