Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dear sir(s), I am a BSDi and FreeBSD users. As you may know, BSDI does not have a ports collection. A group of BSDI users including myself have decided to build a ports collection for BSDI that is based entirely (hey, copying is the most sincere form of flattery right) upon the FreeBSD ports collection. The idea is fabulous but... Is there any major aversion of us doing this? I don't want to step on anyone's toes. Is there a better way of doing this?
