Hi, I have been lurking in the background for a bit.
I have some suggestions for interested folks.
Project:
Convert all of the existing 'standard' items to
Makefile versions. This will get rid of the script
stuff.
Project:
Add a project.conf or some other file at the
project level, and put necessary configuration
information into this file, AND PASS ITS LOCATION
IN THE MAKEFILE PARAMETERS. Also, be brave:
put the various configuration files in the top level
as well
Example:
/usr/.../picobsd/myproject/Makefile
project.conf
crunch.conf
Contents of project.conf:
MFS=3500
....
In the top level Makefile you can do:
PROJECT?=${.CURDIR}/project.conf
CRUNCH?=${.CURDIR}/crunch.conf
CONFIG?=${.CURDIR}/PICOBSD-C
... make PROJECT=${PROJECT} CRUNCH=${CRUNCH} CONFIG=${.CWD}
Now, you might wonder why this stuff -
so you can have different projects use the same
directory and have different versions for testing, etc.

Have you ever considered putting in a symbolic link to the
file? Much easier.
