I have a application that I want to port to FreeBSD. It is licensed under the BSD license from what I can understand. In the new port's Makefile, would I just put something like this: license: BSD or would that not work? Suppose it was licensed under a "public domain" license. How would that be handled or isn't it important in that case. Finally, do I have to use anything other than: .include <bsd.port.mk> in the Makefile? I cannot seem to locate a lot of this information in the porter's handbook; although I thought I should have. Thanks! -- Carmel carmel_ny@hotmail.com
