Some time working with binary oriented software systems have teach me=20 that simple changes may become harder when size and numbers grow up. I=20 think this may be even harder with a non-binary oriented system like=20 ports. But this doesn't solve the real problem. We've lost a reference model=20 about rc and the interaction with the base system and ports. =2D some kinda of style for ports/system rc scripts =2D some docs about keywords and stage support =2D some kinda of timeline model =2E.. I think that this is more or less out there, but not in a strict=20 document that may guide for the change to FreeBSD-6.1 =2D- josemi=20 -- This mail was scanned by AntiVir Milter.
