I have two more ports which are ready to be committed, once I can get over the last hurdle. The problem is there is no tarball for either of the ports; the source is on an FTP server that doesn't support on-the-fly tarring (and in any case I have a nasty suspicion they may soon delete it). The best solution seems to make my own tarball and put it on ftp.freebsd.org. Is this correct, and if so how do I go about it? -- In theory, theory is better than practice. In practice, it isn't.
