It is :)

The objective is different, with packages people will be able to easily
choose language, update (with portupgrade, portmaster etc.), formats
like PDF will be provided, the base system is not touched.
Nothing more than a simple pkg_add(1) command should be required.
The release rolling job will be easier, and at install time the user
could (once implemented) really choose what localized doc to install,
etc.
