Hi,

Please change the category from  "misc"  to "emulators". Do let us know if =
there is anything else that needs to be done.

Thanks,
Sainath.

Hi,

Apologies for the mistake. Ideally I like Aryeh's suggestion of creating a =
category for virtualization integration components. However given that it w=
ould require a lot more work, I believe emulators is the right category. Pl=
ease change from misc to emulators.

Thanks,
Abhishek

General question on the category:
  There are a significant number of virtualization ports in emulators.   Em=
ulators seems to be more about emulating hardware that is not present inste=
ad of virtualizing the existing hardware.  Given that why not create a cate=
gory for virtualization?

Fix synosis.

Note to submitter: I have substituted 'misc' as the category.  'kld'
is a virtual category and cannot be used for a primary category (e.g.
there is no ports/kld/ directory.)

Is there another physical category you think might be better?
