    In OpenBSD current there is (alot of) work to enhance the portsystem with a portupdate functionality as well, and hopefully this will be completed before release of OpenBSD 3.7. Looking forward to that functionality.

    As for DragonFly, it's my impression that they want to write their own, but for the moment they piggyback on FreeBSD ports system. I think that DragonFly rejected the other ports systems as inadequate for their needs (in an interview with Dillon).
