I think some ports have split the docs into their own port, e.g., gimp. Is that a reasonable approach here? The fact that a lot of the gnome stuff A) makes docs by default, B) with no option to turn it off, which C) pulls in a ton of docbook and other deps; is not something I'm fond of, and would prefer to not see repeated elsewhere. :) Doug -- Nothin' ever doesn't change, but nothin' changes much. -- OK Go Breadth of IT experience, and depth of knowledge in the DNS.
