* I recall that there was quite a discussion amongst the people doing * FreeBSD ports on this issue some time back, and would like a few * things from those involved in it. * * a) What was the final outcome? Do all our ports use /var/news or * /var/spool/news. They now all use /var/news. * b) Was there a majority of the ports that used one over the other? And * was this majority value the same as our final value? Yes, Andrey checked them and everything except inn used /var/news, that's the sole reason why we went with it. Inn was since converted to default to /var/news by Torsten. * c) Was the decision and resulting patches to make this consistent sent * to the original ports source? I don't know about this one.
