    Sure, though we have to use 2008Q4 for the release pkgsrcs since that
    is what the packages are built from and using anything else will
    create a mess when someone tries to compile some utility A and the
    pkgsrc system decides it has to rebuild the entire xorg infrastructure.

    It's fine with me, but you guys have to make the changes to the
    nrelease build and test them.  And not hacks.  If a tarball is
    downloaded it has to be checked by the check code and downloaded
    with a convenient target similar to how the cvsup package is dealt
    with, not downloaded every time nrelease is run.  And it has to be
    tested.
