* IMHO, it must go to ports/utils, like xsysstat... * * This has been bothering me for some time now. ports/utils is sort * of like a grab bag---just about anything can be considered an * utility. Unfortunately, I don't have any better naming scheme in * mind. Any suggestions? Well, xperfmon belongs to utils/ more than x11/, that's for sure. And for utils/ bloating, well I think it's more like a "misc" category, because as you say, anything is a useful utility or it won't be there in ports in the first place. :) However, it seems like the way it has been in the past is that when we have a large enough subgroup in utils, it will be separated (archivers/ and japanese/ come to mind). Right now, I see about three kinds of things in utils/.... System performance monitoring/checking stuff: iozone, top, tua, xdu, xperfmon, xsysstats DOS/Windows/Mac emulators/floppy utilities: cpm, hfs, mtools, pcemu, wine Others: amanda - shouldn't this be in archivers? colorls - sorry, it's all my fault ispell - can't put anywhere else less - ditto mmv - if colorls is moving, this goes with it mshell - hmm, maybe can move it to shells pgp.non-usa_only \ no pkg files...Andrey? :) pgp.usa_only / rman - can't put anywhere else screen - don't know what this does Maybe we can make new hierarchies for the first two groups. The first one can be called "sysutils" or "perfutils"...no idea about the second one. Satoshi
