I wasn't complaining about people who can't yet speak English very well and produce a sub-perfect (ie. normal ;) pkg/DESCR. That was really just a sudden randomly-timed outburst about the people who write these things and don't bother to proofread them, spending no more than the absolute minimum amount of effort (which often equates to "cat ${WRKSRC}/{README,INSTALL,UPDATE,*.[123456789]} >> pkg/DESCR", although in some cases has been known to equate to "touch pkg/DESCR").
