I haven't seen any updates on the thread you wrote about. Maybe I'll drop a
line.
However, your script is probably the best option until you make a 1.0, or
non-snapshot release. The reason is the package may not be updated weekly, and
each week, you seem to bring in useful improvements and changes. The -release
build of openBSD doesn't receive new package updates. If your snapshot was
made into a port/package a few weeks before the 6.4 -release, it would be the
only available option until the next release. Fortunately, -release builds
happen very often, every six months.
