This statement is partially correct. Given that lcdproc is checked into the ports CVS branch now:

http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvswe...dproc/Makefile

It is already officially available to users of -current.

However, you should note where the OPENBSD_5_1_BASE CVS tag is placed (as this denotes what will be available with OpenBSD 5.1-release). The very latest lcdproc check-in made two weeks ago is newer than the 5.1 CVS tag; thus, this particular check-in is only available to -current users.

Is this check-in important? I don't know as I don't use lcdproc. The point here is that development of the port is actively on-going.

If you are confused by the different flavors of OpenBSD: -release, -stable, & -current, study Section 5.1 of the FAQ.
