I have no desire to take a port from anyone that is a Maintainer. But after a bit of investigation, those that I substituted myself for, appeared to have been using distcache for some time -- often for more than a year. As to "boilerplate"; I had only a small window to work from the day I investigated those ports, so recycled much of the dialog, in an effort to do the necessary preliminary work, for them (save time). All the best. --Chris -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
