Well, we don't have `www/Firefox', `databases/PostgreSQL', etc., do we? It does not look unixish. There are few special cases when it is indeed desirable to use mixed cased names, e.g. CPAN packages, Python modules, those things with established naming convention of their own, when we bring lots of them to our ports and want to stay more or less consistent with popular GNU/Linux distributions, but those are isolated groups. For some random unattached port it's almost always better tolower() it. ./danfe
