Those sorts of scripts/processes are unique per vendor tree; uuencoding steps could be removed from any that have it (along with changes to our build infrastructure). I have a subset of the vendor tree checked out locally and none of the FreeBSD-Upgrade files I have reference uuencoding -- but I did not check everything. Note that we already have several vendor src trees that have verbatim binary files - for one example, contrib/file/tests/JW07022A.mp3.testfile. > I suspect some of that is inplace and we probably do not want to just > undo it without some careful thought. Fair point; I would leave process changes for vendor/contrib to the individual maintainers.
