Seems that the python 3.3 ports might be added to FreeBSD around the
end of December. Since I initially didn't know how long it would be, I
submitted my own port and as a result found out someone else was
already working on it. Since the change also updates a base ports file
they have to wait till after the upcoming OS release, around Dec 20th
(I assume due to a code freeze). So let's hope the schedule doesn't
slip too much for them. ;)
