+Tinderbox is a package building system for FreeBSD ports, based on
+official Portbuild scripts used on pointyhat building cluster.
+Tinderbox was written by Joe Marcus Clarke.
+
+You can define multiple jails (base system versions) and multiple
+portstrees. The combination of jail and portstree is called a build.
+A Tinderbox jail is not what is understood as a jail in FreeBSD,
+it is in fact a given world in a chroot. Tinderbox supports automatic
+tracking of dependencies and only rebuilds packages that changed
+since last run. Tinderbox has support for email notification of
+failed builds. Tinderbox also integrates well with ccache.
+
+Tinderbox is designed to easily provide package sets of ports you
+need, for platforms and architectures you need. Tinderbox is also
+excellent tool for testing new ports and port upgrades, especially
+for testing dependencies and packing lists. It's also useful for
+testing ports on various releases of FreeBSD, since you can run
+FreeBSD 4.X world as a jail on FreeBSD 5.X/6.X host.
