Perhaps this should be changed? IMHO, The big problem with README.FreeBSD is that it's not uncommon to see vendors shipping README files for particular OS's, and it's not unreasonable to expect that there could be README.FreeBSD's around there from vendors. It also blends in with the vendor files too well. I'd have preferred them to be up a directory level out of the vendor files altogether.. (eg: src/contrib/cvs/* and src/contrib/cvs.README) Cheers, -Peter
