Hi all,

Even since its deprecation, portupgrade has proven to be very popular with newcomers, which I might be inclined to blame on the fact that the Handbook lists it first.

Two patches:

http://www.bayofrum.net/~crees/patches/move-portupgrade.diff -- move the portupgrade section to the bottom

http://www.bayofrum.net/~crees/patches/deprecate-portupgrade.diff -- add a note to suggest it's a bad idea to use it.

Rendered at http://www.bayofrum.net/~crees/rendered/portupgrade.html

Thoughts? Anyone want to risk approving it?

Good idea. I'd like to see Portmaster first in the list though, and not Portmanager.
