The category "utils" has never lived up to its expectation where people put in all sort of useful utilities -- in fact, most of the things in the ports tree is a great utility in one way or another! :) And this naming is confusing at best, so I suggest changing it to "misc". That way it will be much clearer that it's not really a category on its own right, but sort of a "catch-all" for things that don't really belong elsewhere (and looking at the current population, this is what they exactly are). We can also move games/astrolog in accordance to Andrey's old complaint. :) Satoshi
