No...I have to go through and move them all to the pkg/DESCR file ... 

I *hope* that it will become standard with what ppl put in pkg/DESCR
though, since, with current search engiines, its getting more and more
difficult to find the WWW sites associated with a package :(  Its been
especially a nightmare for the whole Y2k stuff ...

I'm going through the ports, hopefully tomorrow, and moving things...meant
