Creating new categories is absolutely doable! However, we have a pretty high bar for justifying it. There's no magic number, but our (portmgr's) precedent is that the new category must, at the time of creation, be as full as other categories like it. The most important thing in the new category proposal is a comprehensive list of ports that will be moved to it. Put that into a review or a PR and we can move forward. Fair warning though, if it's only about a dozen ports, it most likely will not be approved. My approach here is that new categories should be virtual unless the evidence for hard category is incontrovertible. # Adam -- Adam Weinberger adamw@adamw.org https://www.adamw.org
