I might well be able to do somthing you said, but I don't like it:-). On the other hand, I'll automatically commit liveMedia. The first, I'm watching liveMedia site by cron, and if it is updated, my program will report to my cell-phone (with an e-mail function).

Sounds like a lot of work to me. The ports dont really have a way to address snapshots very well. of course the pkg-plist would be one issue to combat, Too bad there isnt a way for the ports to auto-generate the pkg-plist. Good luck you you :)

I can tell you a good reason not to do this, say someone hacked live.com and changed some code around and made a new release with bad code. This has happened before, look at bitchx.org. You're more incline to catch it if you manually upgrade the program.

Good point. I totally agree with that.
