The main ravenports website
http://ravenports.ironwolf.systems/
is blocked I get the message:

Maybe?  But many other packages do come in?  Maybe I should try to use

# ravenadm update-ports

and try it again.

I know, I just want to help test and use the ravenports.  I used to
really love compiling from source and configuring the packages and
running
# make install clean
from the ports.  I used synth a little to like it and ravenports is
similar.  I do prefer to build software from source whenever possible.
The binary packages are great and have me and other users spoiled :)

But for this I want to try and not give up.  In the github page I try
to create account and I get a verify account and it just sits there
and does nothing more.  So I could not open the ticket :(  Apologize
for that.
