I have it that sounds great :-) I am still using a highly patched 2.5 version of xerces-p because 2.6 hadn't given me all the features needed (that I have in my patches). > ready (with the correct name and category). Sorry for the mistake, > this is my first port submission. I guess that's not problem. Looking at the the original submission I wonder if things will be that easy. Especially no plist update makes me wonder. Having been the former maintainer of xerces-c2 I know that it's a lot of work to get the port right and ports people have often found more things afterwards;-) I can lend you a hand and help during next week and test things also with different make config options if time permits. Just contact me offlist/offPR. There is "The Porters Handbook" that gives "some" information on what to do and how to do it: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/index.html You might want to have a look at it if you haven't already. And last: thanks a lot for taking on the xerces-c2 port! -- Bjoern A. Zeeb bzeeb at Zabbadoz dot NeT
