Hello
I am currebtly using the 2.12 package port for Gnome. (My processor is

bad shape and can't handle most source builds without shutting down.)
What are the plans for making 2.14 and 2.16 available as binary
packages?

Whatever is in ports is also available on the ftp site. Right now you
can use the 6.2-release packages since the 6-stable packages are on
hold during the release cycle.

How should i define which packages to choose..?
I only know that pkg_add fetches the packages to which is your system...

Easiest way is to set PACKAGESITE per the pkg_add manpage, then use
portupgrade -faPP to update all your packages to the 6.2 versions.
I'm assuming you're running a recent version of 6.x, BTW.
