Yes, as long if anyone want to take the maintainership and send it to PR for request the repo copy (fluxbox -> fluxbox-old, fluxbox01 or whatever) just as I said (you stripped out) in my previous email. I will not object on this, but it's up to portmgr too if they approve. > As for fluxbox-devel -> fluxbox repocopy right now I think that it's a > good idea, becouse fluxbox-devel seems to be even more stable than > fluxbox and it's supported by developers. I personal rather to wait until it's offical released by the developers. Styles that come with the tarball are out of date and few other small things could use to fix. I am sure that the developers will update/fix the styles in the final. > PS I don't really want to start a war simular to the shells/bash* one :-) That kind of half war is kind of silly if you ask me ;-), but I only agree about 'foobar' without number should be offical version/stable one unless it's something special like gnome2/kde3/libxml2. Anyway, I doubt we will have another war for fluxbox. Cheers, Mezz > -Roman Bogorodskiy -- mezz7@cox.net - mezz@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD GNOME Team http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/ - gnome@FreeBSD.org
