The ones with a 3 may need to be rebuilt by their owners/maintainers, although even for those we can now write .bep files that can use haikuporter to pull from their cvs, svn hg, or git repos and automatically build and create their zip packages as well: http://ports.haiku-files.org/wiki/VersionControlURI Once I finish with groups 0-2 I'll take a look at the rest of them.
