Good day Ports!

I have a high interest, along with several others, to see Asset Tracker be 
made into a port.  I have contacted the software author, Todd Chapman, 
(todd@chaka.net) and he has given me permission to pass on his name and the 
software address.

Asset Tracker is an overlay to RT (Request Tracker) and tracks assets (ok, 
duh... :-) ) I'm slowly converting the infrastructure machines, in a company 
that provides Solaris and RH as platforms to customers, into FreeBSD.  Their 
accounting department and IT department are having problems tracking 
locations, addresses and specification of the platforms (PCs, workstations, 
servers, switches, etc) and keeping them in a centralized, platform 
independent repository.

I believe Asset Tracker may be the extensible tool we need.  Please assist.  
If someone from ports could contact the author (CC address) about getting 
this into ports it would be most appreciated.

Thank you!

Paul Pathiakis

PS - Thank you for the solid responses to all the previous requests for 
software.  -and 'no' I don't have time to be the porter. :-(
