The following reply was made to PR ports/21473; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Trevor Johnson <trevor@jpj.net> To: Will Andrews <will@physics.purdue.edu> Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.ORG, Satoshi Asami <asami@FreeBSD.ORG> Subject: Re: ports/21473: update devel/SN to 4.5.2, not from maintainer Date: Fri, 22 Sep 2000 12:18:06 -0400 (EDT) > Asami-san, can we get a repocopy of devel/SN to devel/sn, please? I > hate uppercase directory names, and they violate the One True Way. If something like this is under serious consideration, I suggest "sourcenavigator" as the name of the port. It is more informative than the abbreviation and, I feel, not overly long: devel/sh-rtems-binutils, devel/sparc-rtems-binutils, devel/c_c++_reference-i18n, devel/crossgo32-djgpp2-pdcurses devel/libPropListgnome, and devel/p5-Class-MethodMaker (among others) have longer names. Furthermore, there are no ports in devel/ with names beginning in "so" so someone could just type so<tab> to complete the name--just as easy as typing the existing name. -- Trevor Johnson http://jpj.net/~trevor/gpgkey.txt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
