So why did you publicly bitch at me on -stable and not -chat?
Answering your question: My decision was that its 51% -stable and 49%
-ports and that I don't like multiple postings. The governing file is
/usr/share/mk/bsd.port.subdir.mk which redirects to
"${PORTSDIR}/Mk/bsd.port.subdir.mk" so maybe my call was inverted. I
stand by my original decision as I've learned my original gut instinct
is usually best. It is certainly not 100% anything but *BSD.
If I liked abuse I'd use Linux.
