AM> Here I announce the launch of the FreeBSD-XFree86 list, which is
AM> created for discussion on reorganizing, improving and maintaining the
AM> XFree86 ports for FreeBSD.  Top priority of the moment is to divide
AM> the one big XFree86-4 port into a set of component ports and make the
AM> build process better.

AM> Currently, the maintainers of the XFree86 4.x ports, Will as a
AM> portmgr, and I as coordinator/administrator of the list are joining,
AM> while we always welcome those who are interested in maintaining and
AM> improving the XFree86 4.x ports.

AM> To join the list and/or browse the archive, use the following web
AM> interface:

AM>         http://lists.csociety.org/listinfo/freebsd-xfree86

AM> To begin with, we the workers will be concentrating on replacing the
AM> stock x11/XFree86-4 port with a meta port of the component ports
AM> (x11*/XFree86-4-*), so please do not post mere questions here yet.
AM> Try ports@FreeBSD.org or questions@FreeBSD.org for that purpose.  We
AM> will post a further announcement when we are ready to accept questions
AM> from ordinary users. (And we'll probably move to xfree86@FreeBSD.org
AM> then)

Why all this stuff is being maintained at lists.csociety.org rather
that at FreeBSD dot org???

It is more convenient to manage all FreeBSD atuff in one place and to
have the list of all lists available in one web-page.
