hello,

in an effort to allow myself to build ports that fetch code from cvs, i
have created a writeup of my work so far:

http://voltron.emptyrhetoric.com/cvs-ports.html

along with fetching the sources from cvs, a pkg-plist is generated
automatically as part of the build process. i would appreciate general
thoughts and comments on this approach, and to the direction i should go
from here. i plan on using this this on my personal systems, and possibly
to automate the FreeBSD package release process of some projects i am
involved with. is this something that could be integrated into the
FreeBSD project in general? if so, let me know what steps i should take
in developing the process.

thanks for your time

anthony

ps - looking at the archives i see there was some cursory discussion of
this topic in august 2000. did anything ever come of that?
