To wit, I could > plug 'kdict' into a search box, and have aport name be presented? No, but creating one would be cool. The big gotcha is that said site would have to build all the packages because that's the only way to reliably determine their contents. As such, the site would realisticaly have to be part of the ports building cluster infrastructure. Creating the site and providing a simple interface for adding the file list for a port what is ready to be turned into a package would be a good start. -- Brooks --=20 Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
