Well, check out http://www.zope.org/Products, and note that there are over 140 'products' available (there is a link at the bottom to the next twenty products, I missed it the first time ;) As I'm not yet familiar with Zope, I wouldn't know how many of these products would need to be ported or anything, but if there is interest in these it would surely fill up ports/www... Maybe a common prefix would help in the meantime, like the perl modules? Something like ports/www/zope-[squishdot,wiki,...]? > > > Is that something which sounds feasible ?

I'd say if you create ports/zope, IMHO you should put the main distribution there also. --Stijn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
