It's common decency. "Common decency" is disputable even in within USA; Europe is less infested with USA style prissy "political correctness", & other places less than Europe. Censorship of Global FreeBSD to USA norms is Offensive. > There's no "censorship" if the FreeBSD developers make a collective > decision that they don't want to be associated with juvenile junk Some will consider games/* & misc/jive etc juvenile, & other ports offensive for licence or many other reasons. Tolerate them all, Live & let live. The vast majority of commiters are innocent. Just a few ports butchers have degraded FreeBSD, removing working ports in last few years. Rather than delete or move sensitive ports to a new SUBDIR, causing disruption, & SVN work, Add a flag to bsd.port.mk like NO_CDROM eg SENSITIVE= (like a TV / Cinema adults only flag). > that makes them look like a bunch of out-of-touch clueless old white > guys; Inflamatory language degrades, Mature language builds.
