And if look only on name, what can i say about mutt-devel ? It development version of mutt, right ? If it development, it buggy, unstable and so on. It tree exist ports/misc/mc and ports/misc/mc-light what difference ? "-ng" show us author vision on how it must be and all. Main question, if it will be named for example: mutt-nt :) You will agree to put this on ports tree ?
