+    <body>
+      <p>The last quarter of 2017 ended with over 27,000 ports in the
+	repository.  There are currently just under 2,800 open ports
+	PRs with 685 of them unassigned.  There were 6,700 commits
+	made by 178 committers.  The statistics did not change much
+	since last quarter, however the number of unassigned PRs
+	dropped slightly.</p>
+
+      <p>This quarter, we welcomed Yuri Victorovich (yuri@), Jason
+	Bacon (jwb@), and Wolfram Scheider (wosch@) as new or
+	returning port committers.  No commit bits were taken in for
+	safekeeping.</p>
+
+      <p>Portmgr, together with postmaster@, changed the policy of the
+	FreeBSD-ports@ mailing list.  It is now required to be
+	subscribed to the list before one can post to it.  This will
+	help in reducing spam on this list and help users finding
+	better questions to their answers while browsing the list
+	archive.</p>
+
+      <p>This quarter ports &quot;flavors&quot; went live.  Flavors
+	can be used to build multiple variations of a port, for
+	example <tt>py27-sarge</tt> and <tt>py36-sarge</tt>.  All
+	Python ports and some other ports are now flavored.  Other
+	uses of flavors could be including or excluding X11
+	(<tt>foo</tt> vs <tt>foo-x11</tt> or <tt>foo-nox11</tt>) or
+	selecting the printer paper size (A4 vs letter).</p>
+
+      <p><tt>USES=fmake</tt> has been removed as it was no longer
+	useful.</p>
+
+      <p>Some default versions got updated: Ruby to 2.4 and Samba to
+	4.6.  Firefox got updated to version 57.0.3 and <tt>pkg</tt> to
+	1.10.3.</p>
+
+      <p>During the last quarter, antoine@ ran 33 exp-runs to validate changes
+	to the base system, fix Qt5 ports, test Python flavors and other port
+	updates, and make rubygem port builds reproducible.</p>
+    </body>
+
+    <help>
+      <task>Clang 6 is being imported into base.  There is a PR that keeps track
+	of ports failing with this compiler, see <url
+	  href="http://bugs.FreeBSD.org/224669">PR 224669</url>.  If you use
+	any ports mentioned here, please consider fixing them.</task>
