The main topic here -- despite the subject line -- is not about the particular part, but about the conflicting opinions on when to remove ports from the tree. The fate of sysutils/cfs or any other individual port is, really, secondary to that discussion... Yar, myself, as well as other folks, who object to the on-going deprecations/removals of ports for the slightest of offenses, can fix /any/ port currently on the death-row, but we can not fix /all/ of them. Still, we would like them to remain in the tree -- unless they flat-out do not build. Yours, -mi
