Perhaps I am missing the obvious and will be rewarded with embarrassement, but where are conventions like the use and naming of -devel ports described? I would have expected this to be covered in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/book.html but -- it is not. (If this is an omission, can someone more closely involved than I have been so far donate a paragraph or two?) Gerald PS: I am thinking to split the existing emulators/wine port into two, the regular one (tracking releases of Wine) and a -devel port that tracks the bi-weekly snapshots that will lead to the next release in a year or two. Somehow I would prefer something like wine-stable / wine instead of wine / wine-devel, but the latter is more in line with how we are doing things, right?
