>Description:
Julian Elischer suggested a new category "net/benchmarks" because he
believes that too many ports are listed under net/. Checking into it, I
noticed that these two ports are described as benchmarking programs. In
the Porters' Handbook, the net category is described as "miscellaneous
networking software". The benchmarks category seems more specific so I
feel that it is preferable.
>How-To-Repeat:
cat /usr/ports/net/*ttcp/pkg-comment
>Fix:
repo copy to benchmarks/ or at least add "benchmarks" to CATEGORIES line
in ports/net/ttcp/Makefile (it is already present for nttcp)
