 To recap and clarify:
 
 - Your port of the (fast) Sourceforge-based project has been committed from
   PR 26769 as net/py-xmlrpc.
 - My suggested port of the (more general) PythonWare project in PR 27737 has
   NOT YET been committed as net/py-xmlrpclib.
 
 You're suggesting:
 
 - Change net/py-xmlrpc to become a port of the PythonWare project.
 - Commit a new port of the Sourceforge project as net/py-fastxmlrpc.
 
 This doesn't really correspond to "how things are done" in ports, methinks.
 IF you're particularly keen on the name change, then the procedure should
 probably be:
 
 - Ask for a repo copy of net/py-xmlrpc to net/py-fastxmlrpc
 - Commit the port of the PythonWare module as net/py-xmlrpc
 
 Personally, I don't oppose the name change, though I think it unnecessary
 since the Sourceforge project is officially known as "py-xmlrpc", whereas the
 PythonWare project is generally referred to as "xmlrpclib", even on its own
 web site.
