This tradition is commongly seen throughout entire Unix heritage and is omnipresent, from login names to APIs. You may prefer c:\Documents and Settings\User Joe but most of us don't. Yes, this also applies to port and package names. > The rule is that PORTNAME follows upstream's naming. The only exception > when the port installs a single utility and that utility is lowercased.

This is what we do for CPAN packages and others that 1) include a lot of ports, 2) have an established naming convention of their own, 3) many of them are common dependencies and it helps to have similar package names with popular GNU/Linux distros. For some random unattached port it's almost always better tolower() it, (ir)regardless of whether it is a single utility, library, game with a lot of resources, or anything else. ./danfe
