Many distfiles where left off of the 2.0.5 * CDROM and it appears that this was used as the criteria for doing it. I * already mentioned one to you that was this way in private email (elm) and * just want to make sure that you have found a ``better'' criteria mechanism * for what distfiles go on the cdrom. It's not been the "criteria", Rod...it's only that there is no safe and convenient mechanism other than "make package" to do the top-down build. ;) I'm planning to revamp the whole legal/commercial/slimey license paradigm after 2.1 goes out. For instance, the ones that say "don't sell for profit" can be on the ftp site as distfiles and packages. * I don't have a list of ones I have run accross but I know there where at * least 2 or 3 of them that the only reason they are not packages is because * they have compiled in gunk that makes packaging them impractical. * * Seems here is yet another one :-). For now, we need to figure this out case-by-case.
