+      <p>As of the end of Q3 the ports tree holds a bit more
+	than 25,000 ports, and the PR count is above 2,000.
+	The summer period saw less activity on the ports tree
+	than during the previous quarter, with fewer than 7,000
+	commits performed by 120 active committers.
+	Unfortunately, the number of problem reports closed
+	also decreased significantly, with fewer than 1,500
+	problem reports fixed during Q3.</p>
+
+      <p>In Q3 several commit bits were taken in for safekeeping,
+	following an inactivity period of more than 18 months (fluffy), or
+	on committer's request (xmj, stefan, brix).  One new developer was
+	granted a ports commit bit (&a.junovitch.email;), and one returning
+	committer (&a.farrokhi;) had his commit bit reinstated.</p>
+
+      <p>On the management side, no changes were made to the
+	portmgr team during Q3.</p>
+
+      <p>On the QA side, 25 exp-runs were performed to validate
+	sensitive updates or cleanups.  Amongst those, the noticeable
+	changes are the update to <tt>pkg</tt> 1.6, the <tt>automake14</tt>
+	removal, and several important ports updates such as
+	<tt>doxygen</tt> to 1.8.10, <tt>gnome3</tt> to 3.16,
+	<tt>cmake</tt> to 3.3.1, and the Qt4 ports to 4.8.7.  The default
+	jdk was also set to <tt>openjdk8</tt>.  Some infrastructure
+	changes included the addition of new options helpers:
+	<tt>opt_VARS</tt>, <tt>opt_VARS_OFF</tt>, <tt>opt_IMPLIES</tt>,
+	and <tt>opt_PREVENTS</tt>.  Some macros were also removed, such as
+	<tt>UNIQUENAME</tt> and <tt>LATEST_LINK</tt>.

+	<p>We would like to remind everyone that the ports tree is
+	  built and run by volunteers, and any help is greatly appreciated.
+	  This is more important than ever, since the number of problem
+	  reports cannot seem to stop increasing.  So if you use ports or
+	  packages, please consider jumping in and helping! This is also
+	  true for existing porters: it would be great if you would consider
+	  the next step, that is to share your knowledge and mentor someone
+	  more junior with the ports tree internals.  And if you already do
+	  these tasks, many thanks to you!
