[chirp_users] CHIRP on OpenBSD

[Ted Roby]

Hello.

I have noticed that the OpenBSD port for CHIRP is still for version 0.4.1
which was seemingly posted on 8 October 2014. This version uses an older
URL of chirp.danplanet.com/download/.

I have created a patch for which points it to
trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/ and uses chirp-daily-20160505.

Will development of CHIRP remain on chirp_daily, and no longer use build
versions like 0.4.1?

Can the daily builds be considered stable? If not, how can I predict the
path of stable builds?

Thanks for a great tool. This latest build works with my hardware perfectly.

As a side note, someone else has already added patches to the OpenBSD ports
tree for these devices (I am sure the following will syntactically be
mangled by gmail):
