From: asami@freebsd.org (Satoshi - Ports Wraith - Asami) Sender: owner-freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org * From: Tom Hukins * I'm afraid I can't give a definitive answer, but under the "Quick Me neither. Never thought about this too much. ;) * Porting" section of "Making a port yourself" in the Handbook, the * following example is given: * A cat chasing a mouse all over the screen. * * This suggests that both capitalisation and a terminating period * should be used. If this isn't the case, the Handbook should be * changed. Actually, if someone can take a look at the current ports and compile some kind of statistic (X% starting with caps, Y% ending with periods), that will be great. Maybe we can just go for the majority. -PW To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
