Might we create src/opt/ where things we are used to maintaining can be put? Nightly the latest src/opt/foo can be checked out and tarred up. This way everyone can still work on and commit fixes to this software. Just as happened for the Alpha. With a tarball sitting outside of the FreeBSD world, it is hard to be as responsible for the code. Alternately, I guess we could just have the code live in /usr/ports/lang/f2c/src/, but I don't know if Satoshi wants /usr/ports to expand like that. -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.com -or- obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
