Nothing has been written in stone yet about this, because the priority was =
to
convert ports to new options framework first, to be able to kill KNOBS etc =
and
then to work on converting NOPORTDOCS, NOPORTEXAMPLES and WITHOUT_NLS, that=
 is
why I told Gabor he can do what ever he thinks is best in that case.

Of course converting now NOPORTDOCS to PORT_OPTIONS:DOCS, NOPORTEXAMPLES to
PORT_OPTIONS:MEXAMPLES and NLS to PORT_OPTIONS:MNLS brings more consistency=
 so I
personnaly thinks it is preferable.

So last reason for not having pushed yet a rule on that is, that NOPORTDOCS,
NOPORTEXAMPLES and WITHOUT_NLS are specified on lots of documentation that =
needs
to be updated and I have currently no time for that.

That is another area that is open to volunteer btw :)

Bapt
