Which compilers are you referring to?

I disagree. Our port collection is amazing. It makes getting programs for FreeBSD very straight-forward and efficient. The problem is that not all of the ports are always completely up to date - but this has nothing to do with "cathedral vs. bazaar". It simply has to do with the free time of the volunteers. -Mark > > -- > > @= > //RSSH mailto:Ruslan@Shevchenko.Kiev.UA > > -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Mayo mark@vmunix.com RingZero Comp. http://www.vmunix.com/mark finger mark@vmunix.com for my PGP key and GCS code ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "The problem is how do you build tools that understand your programs at a deeper semantic level." - James Gosling To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
