--ibTvN161/egqYuK8 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Following an almost exactly one year old thread on ports@, here's a patch to remove the recommandation that a person's name appears in the pkg-descr file. The other patch lumps together that diff with another change that puts a part of the "Note:" just above in the main text.
