I will leave Ben to answer this - however, this still doesn't explain the fundamental "requirement" to have apache-ssl only exist if it can be unified with your "new scheme". There are many ports that provide the same functionality with different software. apache-ssl and mod_ssl are two different products. Or are you saying that the ports tree is going to be trawled, and all ports that (in your opinion) duplicate functionality are to be deleted? Shock horror! I've just noticed there's a duplicate operating system! Linux does The Same Thing(tm) as FreeBSD - we'd better delete one of them! Doh! cheers, Adam -- Adam Laurie Tel: +44 (181) 742 0755 A.L.
